[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are small rural communities in more sparsely populated states where local government has established grocery stores and/or cafes to make sure these things are available, help keep money in the community, enable people to not have to drive 25 to 50 miles to buy groceries. (In some of these places, municipally-owned liquor stores or bars are the only places allowed to sell alcohol). A hired manager runs the business.

Pennsylvania and 17 other states (red, blue, and purple) have state controlled wholesaling of liquor. "State Stores" are the only places liquor can be sold by the bottle in PA, for example.
