        "Used in cooking" is a silly argument. 'Cooking' jello shots, probably. Or maybe for the big finish when they clean the hibachi at your local Japanese-style steak joint.

        The fact that it's easily obtainable elsewhere is why they caved.

          It was only about a year or two ago that Connecticut allowed Sunday sales. Most people surmised at the time that it was a budget move by the state government, they are looking to tax anything and everything they can think of these days.

          From the store owners I've talked to, expanding hours did nothing to expand total sales, it merely spread existing sales out over more hours.




          Totally unrelated to liquor sales, I just found out that if a person owns real property in Connecticut and then dies, the estate of the deceased cannot sell the property until after the state estate tax return has been filed: apparently the state has a lien on property of deceased people that must be released first, before a sale can take place, and that the fee to release the lien is 0.35% of the property value, even if no estate tax is due. I did not research this claim to verify it or not.

              I remember when NYS did it. It was especially interesting with "border towns", where people were so desperate for Sunday morning drinkie that they'd shuffle over to Vermont.

                    During football season, that's what a lot of Minnesotans will do who don't know how to plan for their misadventures. All of our largest population centers are within an hour's drive of one state or another.

                    Sunday liquor sales won't do much for revenue for liquor sales, but there will be some impact. Conversely, I'd expect sales tax revenues from bars to take a little bit of a dip.

                    The impact will be felt most by liquor store owners whose profits will take a hit. The whoa-is-me news columns have been printing for a few weeks now, hit their zenith when vote took place in the state legislature.

                                This is absolutely precious.

                                “Even after I left office,” McCrory continued, “people are reluctant to hire me because, ‘oh my gosh, he’s a bigot,’ which is the last thing I am.
                                Maybe it's because you are.

                                I’m actually in some ways rather liberal on some of these issues. I’m a libertarian on many of these issues. But I don’t think a city government or state government or federal government should be able to tell the private sector what the new definition of gender is.”
                                Those words you keep using, I do not think you know what they mean.

                                Some people would have used this as a learning moment. But no, you doubled down on your views. Go **** yourself you bigoted piece of trash.
