WHEN LIBERALS CAN’T FACE REALITY WHAT DO THEY DO, THEY DRINK THE BOTTLE–CONSIDERING ALL THE ILL GOTTEN LEFTIST LIBERAL EXECUTIVE ORDERS TO SOCIALIST LEGISLATION FROM OBAMACARE TO THE FARM BILL TO THE ENERGY BILL ALL JOB KILLERS AND THUS MORE LIBERAL DRINK TO IGNORE THE PAIN THEY HAVE INSTITUTED ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

A

sobering new study published by the Journal of Wine Economics — yes, there is a Journal of Wine Economics — finds that alcohol consumption in American states rises as the population’s politics becomes more liberal.

The study by Pavel Yakovlev and Walter P. Guessford of Duquesne University in Pennsylvania shows a direct correlation between political beliefs and the demand for alcohol. The study compares sales of alcoholic beverages against the political leanings of a state's members of Congress, as ranked by liberal organizations Americans for Democratic Action (ADA) and the AFL-CIO Committee on Political Education (COPE).

The research reveals that states with more liberal representatives like Nevada tend to consume up to three times more alcohol per head than more politically conservative states like Arkansas and Utah:

The study concludes:

In this study, we show that liberal ideology has a statistically significant positive association with the consumption of alcohol in the United States even after controlling for economic, demographic, and geographic differences across states.

These findings are consistent with other recent studies in other parts of the world showing that people with socialist views tend to drink more.
