How does help increase sales to Canada?

Point is, Canada is screwing over their businesses (a system championed by people here on the left), to come here, because it's better to operate (as a business).  That should tell you something.  It won't.... but it should.

You don't support American jobs?

I do, but when a foreign based company uses foreign based goods to sell their product, I'm less concerned with said business.  What Jim Beam trying to do, is get idiots to be on their side instead of being on the side of their home country.  The message from American's should be, "Well, then use American products (with American jobs), to reduce costs, or sell to someone who's willing to use American products (and create American jobs)."  Sadly, too many people want to side with the foreign entity instead of their home country because they don't like a person.

No, they are not.  Crown Royal is owned by Diago, a British multinational, it was their decision to move production, not Canada.  You should get your facts straight before making an ass out of yourself.  You won't.... But you should.

How is what you said different than what I said?    Is that your way of admitting you got owned but want to spin it as if I did?   

I said Crown Royal was "moving the important parts of their operation to the US because of Canada's laws."  I didn't say Canada wanted them out or told them to leave.  The laws in place, that Canada has, is making it harder for Crown Royal to operate there.  It's funny because there are people in this country (even on this board), who think the US should be more run like Canada.

What laws?  Diago said it's a cost cutting and supply chain decision.  Now you're good with moving business to lower cost countries?

Exactly.  Thanks.  It's because it's cheaper to do it here than in Canada.  Thanks for playing.

No, I'm good with people moving here because it's better here than elsewhere.  America first!

Look, I know you're fishing for a gotchya, but there isn't one here.  Move on to something else bud.

Let's just recap.

Diago moving crown royal production to the US does nothing to help bourbon sales in Canada.

You agree that corporations should move jobs to lower cost countries, just like the US has done in the past.

Other than that, great job buddy.

The bourbon trend has slowed down.  Tequilia sales are up.

 

Did not know Japs bought Jim Beam.

That's one way to look at it, if you're purposely trying to ignore the facts at play.

Sure did. Keep the limited releases and over seas exclusives at home. You either stand with Ameribourbon enthusiasts or with big Bourbon

Yet I pay attention to prices because that's simply a natural hobby for us 60 year old people I guess. And things are not bad. I made 16% on my investments over the past 12 months and looking at prices I see some up and some down. That's been happening forever. Do you understand how easy it is to eat healthy for cheap if you need to? It's amazing these days. Gas for fuel is not crazy in the least. I could go on about everything but it would all just be glossed over I think. 

 

So true, my investments are doing well but I don’t dare touch any of it, not for another 10 years. (Unless it looks like an investment is starting to crash with no future recovery. Gotta learn more about when to sell.)
You’re right, I’m starting to do more simple eating with more soups and vegetables. I’m doing more bulk cooking with slow cooker.

Ask @TBayXXXVII.  We were talking about bourbon sales being down and he said well at least Diago moved crown royal production to the US.  Has nothing to do with bourbon sales.  Thank you.

Economy booming.  Epstein files failing.  But what about the bourbon!

I claim no knowledge of economic theory.

But it seems to me that they're likely halting production due to not being able to sell their normal volumes (due in large part to tariffs and general anti-American sentiments that the Don excels at creating throughout the world). If Jim Beam had distilled enough in advance to fulfill future supply demands based on metrics from past supply demands, of course they overproduced. Then a significant % of their market disappears and they have excess inventory on hand.

But whathefuckdoIknow?

I know there's a lot of better bourbon out there than Jim Beam, though I don't mind drinking it once in a while. We whiskey drinkers have plenty of options.

I don't think you are wrong, and I'm not saying Jim Beam did anything wrong.  Sometimes the environment changes.  In this case, Canada chose to stall imports due to American tariffs, which impacted JB sales.

My point is that instead of focusing on how higher inventory should lead to lower prices for Americans, Gutter chooses to focus on how a Japanese conglomerate will lose money.  Because he has TDS.

Bought a dozen yesterday for $1.97. But liberals live in the moment and react wildly to rational thought. They now ignore that stupid  argument they were going on about.
