They make billions on alcohol... The PLCB is the largest purchaser of alcohol in the US. It's an uphill battle.

Although… the more I think about… the more I can’t really see any huge issues with it 🤷🏼‍♂️ Already state run ✅ Already used to having purchasers over 21 with ID verification ✅ Tons of Locations already established ✅

I don’t know, doesn’t seem horrible. Plus if they’re doing ID verification before entering, we cut down on underage alcohol sales too. Curious what negatives there could actually be, besides obvious crowding issues.
