Comments on: New Business Plan Blooms from Southern Roots http://demarcationville.wordpress.com/2008/03/29/new-business-plan-blooms-from-southern-roots/ There's a thin line between normal and insane. I think I'm standing on it... which would explain the big blob of crazy on my shoe.

I also think they should leave Sutton alone. It's his private business if he wants to make liquor. The only reasonable crime would be selling liquor that was poisonous, but that's why you always know the person who made it or you don't drink it. One problem in the old days was incompetent shiners would use lead solder in the still. This is not a problem anymore and modern shine is perfectly safe. Another problem was with criminal elements mixing with wood grain alcohol, methanol, which is poisonous. Distributing methanol as liquor should get you the death penalty, not some bogus tax charge. Manufacturing and selling cigarettes that contain arsenic and cyanide (which they do) should also be a death penalty crime. But making well made corn whisky? Should have blue ribbons at the state fair and promote it as an industry. Did you know that during the first years of the Depression, the number of jobs in the liquor store industry grew by 385%? It was the largest growth industry in the early 1930s by far. With our glorious leader's new depression upon us now and the dollar collapsing, the smart money is on those who prepare themselves to enter careers in this growth industry.
