Things that are not part of politics happening presently and how we approach or address it as Anabaptists.

It was 66.5 when the boycott started. It closed 58.69 today. So down about 12%.
Looks like the S&P 500 is up 13% over the same time period.

Apparently, AB InBev thinks my small town is important enough that they brought the Budweiser Clydesdale horses to our local grocery store so visitors could line up and pet them. Keep in mind this is a village of 3500 people plus a few thousand in surrounding rural areas.

Are Amish an important group to InBev?

If they are, my town might not be the right place to go. There are a lot of Pentecostals, tho, but they have a strong stance against alcohol and they organised a family night last night for families to attend. Coincidence?

I just wish other beer companies were not growing. I wish our society would consume less alcohol.

Try hard not to offend. Try harder not to be offended.
Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not after you.
