This is another example of the classic Morse post. Pick a target, fire off a round of insults, and leave the debris for others to clean up. There is obviously not enough room in this form for me to do all of the cleaning, but consider this: All tax moneys collected are transferred to the State Treasury. In fact, all revenues remaining, after PLCB operating expenses and payments to other Commonwealth Agencies, are also transferred to the State Treasury. Mr. Morse, how do you expect the city of Philadelphia to fix "the most dangerous intersection on Penn's campus" without government funds? Secondly, you complain about the prices, but did you ever consider that, being one of the largest purchasers of alcohol in the United States affords an incredible amount of bargaining power? There are always two sides to every coin Mr. Morse. Try flipping yours every once in a while.

Oh please. Are you some kind of communist Goldsmith? I fail to see how state owned liquor stores provide any traceable benefit, other than highlighting yet another of America's outragouesly outdated taboos - fear of alcohol. Time and time again, the free market outperforms govt owned business, and yet some people refuse to accept the benefits of an open market? It's unbelievable, especially from Penn students. A privatised industry would bring lower prices, higher efficiency, bigger profits and thus larger coporate tax income. Everyone benefits, most notably the consume which in West Philadelphia is more often that not those at the bottom of society.
