bye bye miss American pie
A popular new drink when George Washington was nearing the end of his second term, and I'm sure it has toasted many and may have even inspired a few deals signed in ink or blood from the hands of Politicians gangsters and businessmen, If your knowledgeable enough to tell the difference these days.It was like Gold during Prohibition and It has become an icon of America.
Is it any wonder you often hear people say.
"as American as Jim Beam."
So what do you think of Jimmy Boy becoming Japanese at the price of 16 billion.
Is this simply the cost of a democratic free market.
Or another step towards a more Powerful foothold in America by the Asian markets. Perhaps its even a part of the plan to initiate the new world order. Either was How will you celebrate the sale of another American Institution.
What do you think are the long term effects this will have on an already hard pressed economy.
PS I hope I got my facts right.
I'm sure you're going to let me know if I didn't.

Don McLean- American Pie
Yes I hope I did not underestimate your intelligence by thinking you would know I didn't actually coin the phrase I used for my Heading,
"bye bye miss American pie" Being one of the most popular songs in the world I didn't feel the need to.
What a mystery that song has always been to me, such strange
abstract lyrics. I know its about the death of buddy holly another American Icon but.
and Helter skelter was written in Roman Polanskys house.
but what does it all mean .
But A great song and thanks for posting
Many Canadian companies are being bought out by American companies...not to mention real estate prices skyrocketing due to foreign investment. Many cannot afford housing due to this. Cheaper goods are a result as far as manufacturing goes but for at a price. You have to look at the unemployment rate. Manufacturing in Canada as well as the USA are pretty much non existent...(high cost of labour) so no surprise if Jim Beam is no longer an American institution...sign of the times!!
"sign of the times!!" Indeed it is.
It seems we have all been bought and sold into The Ideology of Globalisation through the small print of unassuming political acts.
Can I have some popcorn.
New world order, One world Government Global Village, or Communion of concern.
No matter what you chose to call it, Truth be told Its here and happening. Happening fast too. For better or worse ? only Tomorrow can carry those words.
I know that full well.
I only made that additional Post to keep the proverbial wolf from the door
