[Hemingway's Ghost]

Just think about it, if you could plant a weed in yer backyard and smoke it at yer leisure, would you buy as much beer or hooch?!

Beer? Probably. There's nothing like kicking back on your porch in the summertime with a few pops and listening to the Red Sox on the radio. Scotch? Vodka? Rum? I'd probably buy less, yeah, but not enough to tear the bottom out of the barrel.

"...not enough to tear the bottom out of the barrel."

That's not how BigLiquor looks at it...any drop in liquor intake is a drop in their profits and to the extent de-criminalizing the whacky weed decreases that intake, they're gonna be against said legislation (or change in Executive Order).
