    It IS weird, but by doing that, the state escapes some level of federal liquor taxes (I forget the details) and the end result is that liquor is CHEAPER from state liquor stores in NH than from nominally free market ones elsewhere. If it's crazy but it works...it's not crazy!https://twitter.com/DeadElfTweeting/status/1497720051507544066 …

    It always did seem a little bizarre to me that the 'live free or die' state has state-run liquor stores.

        So state control is ok if it results in cheaper prices?

        Kind makes sense. Government is essentially a protection racket, so one might theoretically protect you from another.

        Replying to @MorlockP

        State monopolies rarely have the problem of being expensive. They tend to have other hidden costs and do stupid shit that free-market businesses wouldn't do, such as the example that started this, but I suppose not being able to buy Smirnoff is a relatively harmless failure mode.

        Replying to @DeadElfTweeting @MorlockP

        I suppose there's a difference, at least in theory, between "state monopoly on X to make buying X easier/cheaper/safer" and "state monopoly on X to prevent people from buying X even though they can't ban it outright", but usually the former is the latter in disguise.

        Also it's now run by liquor nerds so we can bargain for special stuff. (Which I may or may not have consumed this evening, adding to my eloquence in this here tweet.)

        Now you need state run gun shops to skip the excise tax
