The expression "Drink like a fish" has taken on new meaning.

From USA Today:

An unknown amount of alcohol leaked into waterways after a distillery warehouse collapsed on Friday, sending barrels stacked seven stories high toppling to the ground.

Not all of the 9,000 barrels affected in the collapse leaked, according to the state's Department of Environmental Protection, but at least some under the rubble at Barton 1792 Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky did spill bourbon and brandy into nearby waterways.

About 800 fish were killed in Withrow Creek, which empties into Beech Fork River, officials said.

Well dodo, if you think like a liberal the answer is obvious. Raise the tax on bourbon. If they're getting more per bottle because of the shortage then they'll have money to raise the minimum wage. What caused the collapse?



of course, one could think like an american and deal with reality. the only taxes being raised on bourbon right now is coming from foreign nations adding tariffs in response to an unnecessary and predictable trade war that is costing the hardworking producers and their shareholders marketshare.

we might possibly benefit as consumers from lower prices as manufacturers struggle with the issues arising from applied tariffs, but at what cost to us as a whole?
