Every private store is undercut by the state stores, And You can't have a container of beer over 16 oz.

    All this makes me waste time and money going to georgia so I can stay current on the latest and greatest. Live my dream and do my job. And I fight every day and hound my state reps to change these oppressive laws.
    i dont know anything about this one, but it does sound like you have a cool job. haha

    So yeah I have felt the hand of government around my neck. It ain't chokin me yet but it is getting tighter. And it is keeping me from my dream of rocking the booze industry in this state and someday the country.

    Could I move? Sure I've thought about it. But it ain't so easy to leave friends and family that needs you. If I was selfish I'd pick up and go. But instead I fight on for freedom.


    Look your fresh out of college and full of liberal ideals. You may have studied the constitution but I'm not sure you understood it.
    You're right, I don't know all the ridiculous laws..mainly cause they don't/haven't yet affect me..and I feel ya on the fresh out of liberal college thing..and being an environmental science major I get it even more...but global warming is real..there's no way around that..you'll see in about 15 years, but that's beside the point..

    I get your points, and I have to respect them. I just didnt see how someone could be so against the gov't..but I suppose you've got more experience in that field than me..so I'll just let it go.
