Nothing Is Sacred In The New American Gilded Age of Business . . .



Jeebus . . . :

TRENTON, N.J. — At one bar, a mixture that included rubbing alcohol and caramel coloring was sold as scotch. In another, premium liquor bottles were refilled with water — and apparently not even clean water at that.
State officials provided those new details Thursday on raids they conducted a day earlier as part of a yearlong investigation dubbed Operation Swill.
Twenty-nine New Jersey bars and restaurants, including 13 TGI Fridays, were accused of substituting cheap booze — or worse — for the good stuff while charging premium prices.

For the umpteenth time The Gadfly asks the question -- are there any fucking honest business people left in this country any more?

Beyond pathetic.
