So, what do you all think of the purchase?

Stab through the heart, another loss of Americana, and a horrible sign of things to come? How do we feel about these companies as quintessentially American, and do companies like A/B deserve special protection? Should we prop them up (subsidize) if they begin to fail? Is it no big deal: money talks, patriotism walks?

I have no idea how I feel about it, personally. On the one hand, I don't really care, because nothing's really going to change (and I don't drink Bud, anyway.....), but, I think this trend of "allowing" things to slip out of here is kind of disturbing, too.

I don't sense any real agitation from it, other than a few country singers getting all bent. Maybe it's isn't a big deal, and people who proudly drink what I think is horrible beer out of some odd sense of patriotism are kinda loony?
