I just feel that you are opening up the potential for these people to have potential health issues from withdrawal or additional crime if they feel desperate. Literally every other state see the same concerns and allows.
I have 2 family members that were alcoholics. It didn’t matter whether it was beer or liquor, it worked, but “liquor is quicker”. Both got help and haven’t had a drink that we know of in over a decade.

Sounds like a great time for those with potential health issues to get some help, especially if they’re waiting for their next paycheck to buy booze.

Pa is bass ackwards and always has been, however, beer is available. Adapt or don’t, there’s always a choice.

Yeah I agree and thankfully no one in my family has to deal with that. We just know some people who are. I wasnt sure if the type of alcohol mattered. I just don't love beer cause I feel too full, rather a liquor drink. Bourbon is my 1st choice.

We’re simply asking how much money we’re losing to other states.
