But I can't afford to upgrade my household budget so that all my spouses can drink Old Style.

Dearest, you are delusional. I have moved out. And while it does not at all surprise me, it pains me to have to point out that I don't drink beer at all. If it must be carbonated and alcoholic, at a minimum there will be Veuve Cliquot. This kind of inattention to quite important issues is at the heart of the dissolution of our union. Perhaps if I put it into a terrorism metaphor: You say "Saddam or Clinton/Gore? [Falstaff or Buckhorn?]" I say: "Actual terrorist threat, like al Quaeda [Not beer at all, but champagne, like Veuve Cliquot]."
See? Like that.
And perhaps if you paid more attention to your wives, you would have some of sufficient intelligence and moral integrity to contribute to the household budget. I really had no problem paying for the yummy bubbly. But I do see how not having total control over the budget might be threatening to you.
Happily for me, I am in a community property state so no alimony for you (all)! I am leaving behind a few cases for the other wives. I got kind of fond of them. Despite learning bad habits from you, a couple of them were damn good kissers.
