(13,479 posts)Craft breweries can no longer compete and the prices they charge still don't result in profit, so they are starting to close up shop. Rising prices for hops and other ingredients as well as the tariffs on aluminum for cans mean stores that stock their beer aren't able to sell much.
Restaurants are hurting, too, and not just because of their cocktails.
The Pedo Regime is destroying the landscape of enjoyment where people met up with friends to enjoy some food and a few drinks. People are not able or willing to socialize much because it has become too costly, and tourism is way down.
One of the things I have always enjoyed while traveling is visiting craft breweries and one-of-a-kind eateries. Traveling foodies are not traveling so much now.
We are becoming a hell-hole.
