I mean it can theoretically. It's just that our political and regulatory apparatuses are completely captured by the ultra rich. You'll get a few uncorrupt individuals but they're always stonewalled or rendered to a token voice.

Yeah it's everywhere to the point we are rarely not in contact with plastic. We wear it, sleep in it, drink with it, walk on it, and whatever else you can imagine.

Neoliberalism isn't working anymore as the wealth disparity is too vast to fix. When these assholes start saying they have the answers to all of their problems you get a following.

Just enough intelligence to document your lies as truth. And smart enough to know who's off limits.

Imagine that we just end up creating humans the hard, and less fun, way.

I've never used extracts before. Do you just reconstitute it? How does it fair in taste? I like making Japanese style sauces as well as french style reductions. I feel like this would be a very niche product outside of the common wines.

I don't think you've considered all of the factors. The thing with alcohol is that it's very cheap and very easy to produce in your own home. What you're suggesting risks the development of black market bootlegging and all of the problems associated with it.

The assumptions you're making are out of this world. Your reaching at things past criticalilty.

Labels are fine but increasing the price sounds ridiculous. I don't drink alcohol but I cook with it all the time. I don't need an increase in my grocery bill.
