People who make more can buy more?

Oh, sure, I suppose those less-well off can buy twelve-packs of Busch beer, but given a choice of Busch beer and no beer, I'd take no beer any day. Someone who makes more can buy premium beers, single-malt scotch, better whiskeys, etc.? In other words, perhaps increased income results in more alcohol rather than the other way around.

Now if I am in a restaurant, I don't even worry about how much they are charging for a drink. Mind you I don't drink very much, but I hit my 2 drink comfort zone more often, with better tasting stuff. Cheers, Ben "...

Once upon a time, I'd never think of a beer or a marguerita; I'd always have water or iced tea (free refills, y'know.)
