My thought, is it is always about money and is always complicated and at the end of the day it is always the consumer that loses. Whether a distribution company is used or not. I understand why distribution companies exist and it is a system that is fair and unfair from a capitalist sense. Regional beer, or any local product production company needs regulations in place that allow them to survive without inference. Such as getting to the point where the company doesn't need to constantly expand to be successful. Some of the best companies to work for, revolve around making a living wage for everyone involved in the company and that is enough, from owner, to managers to workers, is a noble goal. Not all beer companies needs to have a national or statewide presence to be successful. Especially if prices are carefully managed to reflect inflation and high quality products, not just greed or the bottom line. Companies that make the consumer happy and their workers are the best model of business.

Oh, that takes me back to high school. I bought Red and my friend bought Blue so that we could trade 'mons through that Gameboy linking cable. The day I caught a Scyther was one of the greatest days of my life.

I was that person lol. In a way it genuinely sucks because bow tie is the closest theater to me and has the best selection. I even got a movie pass again recently but it’s been hard to use with bowtie not being an option for me. But dealing with bedbugs was an absolute nightmare and I can’t bring myself to go back right now. Maybe after a year I’ll suck it up and just strip everytime after I go. Idk.
