Yo, fellow american here and your being stupid. Your closed minded view of the works keeps you from realizing that a single company advertises differently in each area it advertises in. As american you should know that ads on the east coast differ from those on the west coast. Now take that basic concept and apply it to a country and culture completely different than ours. They would be as retarded as you if they advertised to different countries in the same way. Not only that, but a simple 10 second google search revealed that NO OTHER COUNTRY LABELS THEIR LIQUOR WITH PROOFING. We are THE ONLY COUNTRY to still use this, even as micro text on a label. You buya simple bottle of Bacardi Spiced rum in america and yes it will have the alcohol's proof on the label. But if you buy the same exact bottle in Canada, Mexico, or any other country on earth IT WILL NOT HAVE PROOF LABELED ANYWHERE ON THE BOTTLE YOU DENSE RETARD.

50+ sets of similar, but slightly different laws regarding alcohol makes it easier to just put both on the label, because some places need one labeling standard, some need the other, some need both.
