Actions such as those taken by my government to benifit certain businesses over others makes a mockery of our capitalist system and should not stand. In addition these kinda of policies undermine our international standing and credibility when negotiating trade agreements. This must stop, especially when some of the biggest benofitiearies aren't even US companies. Haul this unfair distortion immediately.

Acces to and preservation of diversity in fine spirits is a key component of the international standard of living. We all lose when diversity in the marketplace is crushed out. Subsidies are socialism. Socialism is not a dirty word when it is helping the human beings of the world, but it is another matter entirely when it is backing a giant impersonal corporation and creating a false and destructive effective monopoly, which leads to the failure of other participants in a craft industry who deserve the chance to succeed on their own terms. Will we have to reach the point where there is no diversity left in any of the qualitative arts before you understand that freedom of choice and diversity of selection is more important than the difference between a few percentage points in return on investments? When the traditional art of Caribbean rum has been starved into extinction, what will Diageo's dominance have gotten you? Will Diageo subsidize YOU? Will Diageo give Americans quality jobs? You can bet they'll employ the bare minimum they have to. Diageo are grown men, let them stand on their own ten thousand feet.

Rum needs diversity and not a single minded domination.
The distilleries are few and in many cases the last survivors of the colonial age. This heritage and the different styles across the islands are worth to preserve and worth fighting for.
A little history lesson: European subsidiaries of beet sugar were a death blow to many caribbean distilleries in the 19th Century. These subsidiares now are in no way different to those in the past. This has to stop.

First off, it is wrong to hurt the economy of these wonderful islands.

Second, Captain Morgan, Bacardi, and Cruzan are among the worst (not counting the generics) rums ever made.

As a member of the Pirate community, do not hurt our ability to drink QUALITY rum in favor of mass produced crap. Thank you.
