Farewell San Miguel Beer

In "Spineless Philippines Sucker Punch Iraq" I wrote, "Americans of good conscience can add the Philippines to the growing list of countries whose exports should be avoided to the maximum extent possible. As the Philippines do not actually export anything of value- the lifestyle impact will be nil." It ocurred to me this afternoon that the Philippines do export one lifestyle enhancing product, San Miguel beer. I drank a fair amount of it in Hong Kong and while it isn't often seen on menus in Washington, D.C., I regret removing it from the realm of my consideration.
