Yes, it is legal for bars to sell six packs to go. (But no more than two to any one person.)

And yes, I was being snide about the massive training and unionized expertise required.

But, the state store system does make a profit for the state. it contributes revenue to the treasury. Over and above the taxes on liquor that would remain under a private system.

I would need to see a good plan on how to replace that revenue stream, and have some politicians that were trustworthy before I would approve of any privatization. Change just for philosophical reasons is not good enough.

I’m sorry, I did see some more info on that after I hit send. I saw where the state stores have a set amount they have to send the State and last year they were in the hole due to various reasons including cheaper alcohol available in neighboring states. I understand your concerns about replacing the revenue.
