There is no extra tax money. Alcohol problems cost 17x the revenue collected in taxes. More alcohol means higher taxes. Just check out state budgets and you will see. Arkansas also found that people make more money, live longer, have less crime, fewer birth defects, fewer teen pregnancies, and more growth in dry counties.
