Americans could officially be urged to drink no more than two beers a week as part of strict new alcohol guidelines.
Biden's health czar told DailyMail.com the USDA could revise its alcohol advice to match Canada's, where people are advised to have just two drinks per week.
"strict new alcohol guidelines"? So now those mildly incompetent bureaucrats we have been suffering think they can decree alcohol guidelines? They are in for a rude awakening... soon.
"officially urged". Huh. How about I officially tell them to fuck right off into the sunset? These uppity motherfucker need some rules, boundaries, and limitations made clear to them in language they understand.
Yeah, the U.S. Government tried this same shit about a hundred years ago; how did that turn out? Koob has stopped "advising" and started "meddling." I'm pretty sure I didn't vote for him, so he can fuck right off (into the sunset) with that.
Guidelines lead to mandates. I refer to the Covid shit show. if they can't stop you from drinking beer or booze they'll tax it beyond you fiscal reach. When I was smoking 50 years ago a pack of Viceroy was 50 cents. I heard it's about 15 times that now. So get ready for $20 cans of Bud Light in a few years. I keep telling people that Progressives are neurotic, obsessed control freaks and I'm saying it once more. They will push, push, push until they either attain their goals or they stop breathing. Look what they're doing to Trump right now. Mark my words they intend to do the same to you.
in Georgia, cigarettes are ~80/carton. I've been smoking since they were less than $10/carton (officially) because when you're 13, they're technically free... I smoked between two to five packs of Pall Mall non-filter cigarettes per day for more than 30 years (until they quit selling them.) Even in '94 I was one store's only customer. I found out this fact after having moved out of state. I returned for a visit two months later and he still had the remnants of the carton that I hadn't already bought. I laughed, and told him he stop stocking them if I was his only customer for them, and then I paid for them....both of us happy.
I quit smoking after I stopped working in the foundry. That was around 10 years ago. I was paying something like 3 bucks a pack for Marlboros. The last time I was behind someone buying a carton of cigarettes and a case of beer, they paid nearly one hundred dollars for just those two items. I had stopped smoking cigarettes and went to those awful mini cigars which are similar, in that they come 20 to a pack and are the same size, but only in a brown paper instead of a white one. We all know it is bad for us, but I still miss it. I never touched a cigarette until I was 30 years old, going through a divorce, and started playing music in a band, with 5 people who all smoked. Within probably 3 months, I was also smoking. As for drinking, I am not a huge drinker, but after seeing this earlier today, I bought a 25 oz. can of beer just to ensure that I kept up with the government and their recommendation of 2 beers per week. This is of course the same government that not to long ago told us that up to 2 beers or glasses of wine per DAY are good for our long term heart health. Like the much touted food pyramid, I suspect that this is mostly a political issue to help some group of companies make more money. On that same note, I see that California is trying to make a law that they pay unemployment benefits to workers who are on strike. A perfect example of Democrats trying to pucker up to the backside of the unions.
Here in Canada, everyone I know laughed at the idea of a 2 beer limit. To quote one friend "Two beers, I drink that before I light the barbecue." Al_in_Ottawa
Why would you want to prolong your life in the kind of world the commies want you to live in? Some things are really worth fighting, & dying for. But only if you take a few with.
The phrase "F*CK YOU" just doesnt have enough ummph, or expressiveness to form a proper response....
ReplyDeleteI could stick to that but only if Hunter does, too.
Delete"strict new alcohol guidelines"? So now those mildly incompetent bureaucrats we have been suffering think they can decree alcohol guidelines? They are in for a rude awakening... soon.
ReplyDeleteCome on now. I need at least a 24-pack per day to become as dumb as Joe.
ReplyDeleteLike when Micael Obama forced healthy meals in school? How long did that last?
ReplyDelete"officially urged". Huh. How about I officially tell them to fuck right off into the sunset? These uppity motherfucker need some rules, boundaries, and limitations made clear to them in language they understand.
ReplyDeleteCall me crazy but I predict Big Sister will be able to solve this with a new tax.

I can't eat my bugs without a Bud Light!

and Explosives. Everyone always leaves off the Explosives. BATFE. It's what a really good store should call itself.

Hell, when I smoked for a short spell as a teenager back in the '60s, they were 35 cents a pack in Virginia.
DeleteI just might take up drinking again and miss a few meetings just to give them a huge fuck you.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to hear Nancy Pelosi's opinion on this.
ReplyDeleteDon't be silly. These rules aren't for our betters, only for the plebes. Nancy will have her usual two drinks per hour.
DeleteSo we will all be sober, pissed off & ready to kick their fat asses.
ReplyDeletePer hour? I'm all in.
ReplyDeleteNo, per round.

ReplyDeleteBud Light has done their part.
ReplyDeleteI'll take Go Fuck Yourself for $1000, Alex.
ReplyDeleteBut cocaine is fine !
ReplyDeleteI can be "urged" to do a lot of shit, doesn't mean it's gonna happen. Lately, if it's coming from .gov, hard pass.
ReplyDeleteI've had 2 beers just reading these comments
ReplyDeleteHell, two beers is just enough to piss me off.
ReplyDeleteI've had 5X that since I commented earlier. Thuck Fem!
ReplyDeleteEven this….
ReplyDeleteWouldn’t get people off there ass.
We are too Far Gone.
That's the obese transvestite admiral isn't it? I wouldn't pay any attention.
ReplyDeleteNo, he's the Surgeon General of the National Health Service, but I don't give a shit what he says either.
DeleteTwo an hour would be pushing the limits...
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I rarely drink beer anymore so no big whoop.
