We get a storm, we drink. We lose our job, we drink. We get a job, we drink.

We drink, we drink, we drink. As the song goes, Bermudians love to drink. We really don’t care about the occasion or even really need an occasion to pitch a hot.

I would love the BDA GOV to categorically state where they are getting these results, because I work for one of the major wholesalers in the categories listed in the article above and we have not see increases like these so where are the retailers getting their increases from.

Statistics are possible the single most easy thing to manipulate and it is amazing how even the seemingly more innocent politician will do so to improve their standings… misrepresentation of the truth is as immoral as steeling from the public purse.

Such as: If Crap Construction Co. only made $100 last year and made $120 this year that is a +20% increase… But its far from doing well! And if Crap Con Co. is the only construction company I ask well then, cant I then claim that the construction industry saw a 20% rise in profits!

Beware the report that uses % points to brag about benefits & bounty!

Now that I work 9 to 5 I can spend more money on Front Street on the weekends and in the evenings after a long day of work. When I wake up on a Sunday next to the dumpster in the alley next to the bar I can walk straight to the liquor store. That is why liquor sales are up.
