Wal-Mart (That "We Buy American Whenever Possible" ad campaign was YEARS AGO. Wal-Mart is now a Chinese Province)

Pepsi (Michael Jackson...nuff said)

Coors (They donate huge amounts to Gun Control lobbyists)

if a company makes a good product, and dosnt harm society. and its something i want or need. ill buy it.
. (ie walmart driving small business out, SUV's makeing us dependent on saudi terrorists, or best buy not paying it employees). I dont really care about brands.

I realized brand loyalty is something children do. Its something I saw kids get in fights over when i was in grade school and JR high. watching little kids get in fists fights over which is better a nintendo or sega master system is as pathetic as watching 40 year old rednecks fight over which is better their POS ford truck or the other guys POS chevy.

no raub they are not "domestic beers".  use the term they have to use if they want to sell their crap in germany.

"malt beverages"

calling a domestic american beer, beer. is a disgrace to real beer.
