This will do nothing positive and it will end up costing drinkers more money. These people also want to raise the drinking age to 19 and add more restrictions to liquor licenses from the ALGC. They've already made it illegal to have drinks in limos since Stelmach took the helm. This is a multi-step plan aimed at more government control over dirnking.

You're also right about bars pulling a "Denny's" after hours. While not as lucrative as drink service, it could still pull in a tidy profit.
I'm sick of government sponsored social reform. Its a far cry from what goverment was created to do. I wonder what's next from the religious wing. Pre-marital sex punished by fines/jail terms, prohibiting women from working... god, I hate these people.
