If you really want to help stimulate the economy, it could be as easy as grabbing a beer.

A new study shows beer contributes $1.2 billion to Nevada's economy each year.

The National Beer Wholesalers Association said the beer industry also generates more than 15,000 jobs in the state.

Nationally, beer contributes nearly $200 billion annually to the U.S. economy and provides nearly 2 million jobs.

... and I think it’s high time all good Americans “stepped up to the plate” and did their part to stimulate the economy.

Well, I’m going to do my part to stimulate the economy in 11, no, 10 minutes.
