Would you think a corporation would make decsions that actually destroyed it’s own business and made it vulnerable to government fines, regulation, and intervention? I wouldn’t. You wouldn’t.
You’re make assumptions that may or may not play out. So am I. I’m willing to let it play out and see who is vindicated.
I think we’ve worn this subject out. Thanks for expressing your point of view.

off shore. That’s YOUR assumption when you say this is going to cost Americans a lot of jobs. All I’m saying, completely without any assumption, is that such an action simply does not make sense. And because Stella Artois is on that list then inBev already knows off shore production of large quantities of beer is not economical.
