Worldwide hops shortage: Where does your presidential candidate stand?

This article from the Arizona Republic sheds light on a dire problem facing both Arizona and the World... For those of you that don't know, hops is an essential ingredient to the mothers milk that makes our society turn, beer.


Sure there are crisises around the world, but is there anything bigger than this. In fact, if there is any connection between the draught, excessive rain affecting hop production and global warming, it (Global Warming) must be fixed immediately. What is more important beer or cars, obviously beer. In fact if the free market system is the cause of this shortage, it to must be abolished. Above all the availability of IPAs must be ensured... After all the only real reason to have cars or a free market is to transport beer and its ingredients and provide a monetary means of acquiring beer.

If a society cannot provide cheap and high quality beer can it really be considered civilized? Rise up beer drinkers of the world...

If any campaign wants to pick up the venerable endorsement of this site (we currently endorse Obama) you need a strong position on the looming hops crisis. (I am talking to you HRC you need a boost at the moment...)


PS -- This entry is intended to only partially be humorous. Seriously, I want my IPA.
