Message: <blockquote data-quote="donner" data-source="post: 3461211" data-attributes="member: 277">How many rules and laws do you think play into the average visit to a bar? I'm not advocating for more, but pointing out that telling a business they can't operate after certain hours is pretty normal in the broader sense. They are told hours (even days) they can and cannot sell booze, the age people must be to get booze, to stop serving if a person has had too much. They are told what is unsafe for food, that some places must serve food, and can be closed for not following the rules. They are told how many people can be inside a building, how the building must be built and where some businesses can be located. If we want to argue about whether these changes make a difference or are fair, fine. But to say it's about 'freedom' is pretty silly when you think about how many rules are already involved.</blockquote>
