What's the deal with the Budweiser sellout?

Question

Sell of Busch Brewing to a foreign company: why?

The government should not allow a sell this big to a buyer in another country. What in the world is going on?

Answer 1

Its just another example of our country selling its soul for the all mighty buck. There is no sense of national pride or ownership of the pieces that make up America. If the price is right, you could buy one of the Bud Executive mothers souls. The melting pot we call America has come to full boil and its contents are cooked. Now they are lining up to take a scoop at a time away from what we were. It is a sad day when our American Companies start liquidating them self for a profit.

Answer 2

They call it "globalization."  I hate it.  Is there a Belgian born that understands the American Bud Drinker?  I think not.

Answer 3

52 million reasons or was it billion?

Answer 4

A sure sign of the weak dollar

Answer 5

Well shoot.... chalk it  up to thats the new American Way....LOL.  Seriously. You guys hear about the Coors/Miller merge????  My FIL used to work for them (retired)....and boy is he glad that he is not still working there or be one of the forced 175 peeps moving to CHICAGO....I am still in shock....Coors was its own company for so many years....and hey... Coors Light is already being brewed down here in South Texas....

Answer 6

*****We owe our souls to China w/the national debt and our cars and clothes to Mexico!  Buy American?  Buy what?  pretzels?  potato chips?

Just the junk food and small items.  The big items are made from components from other countries.

Answer 7

I am in the UK, and you are not alone brother, the number of UK firms that have sold out to the Chinese cheap labour is a disgrace. Prices never come down though.

Answer 8

Money talks baby.

Answer 9

i think Norway is gonna buy it
