I am surprised at how many people are opposed to that regulating.  It's
also interesting how that desire to regulate, or not regulate, makes
strange political bed fellows.  In Pennsylvania, all liquor is
currently sold in state stores.  Some Pennsylvania legislatures want to
privatize those stores.  Opponents point out that New Jersey and
Delaware, where the stores are privately owned, have a much higher
percentage of the stores selling to minors than they do in Pennsylvania.
The result:  the Democrats and the very conservative Republicans oppose
this bill.  The moderate and liberal Republicans support it.
