It will also increase access to minors. I support my locally-owned Kansas retail store owner, who is also my neighbor, and ask all legislators to oppose any changes to the current system.

I agree on keeping Kansas jobs I run a liquor Store ans we don't need Walmart and Dillions to get in our business. They sell everything else and they need to stay out of our business.

Please do not allow BIG BUSINESS to take away from small businesses. If this passes it will devastate small business and the families that own them.

Full strength alcohol has no place in a grocery/convenience store; let it stay right where it is. I prefer to have the option of going to a small locally owned store and know that I can get the personal attention and advice that I'm looking for in a locally owned store; no way you'll get that in a chain store. Plus the logistics of a grocery/convenience store being able to responsibly monitor their inventory, the alocohol sales and provide a secure area for the alcohol to prevent theft (and we know it WILL happen) are not good. I'm sure we'll all pay for the extra security measures and insurance costs they are forced to take by selling full strength alcohol will be passed on to us poor schmucks--the consumers; the ones that keep their business going. Hey cashiers and customers--the cashier can't even ring up your alcohol purchase if the cashier is under 21. Does that mean the stores will be looking more for employees that are over 21 with the younger ones losing out at a chance for a job? Keep full strength alcohol sales out of grocery and convenience stores; it just isn't a smart move.

Just because other states sell strong beer and liquor in grocery stores doesn't make it right. If your best friend jumped off a bridge, would you do it too? Kansas should be the model for other states. Look at the poverty and crime in other states and compare to Kansas. People do dumb things when they are drinking.

Kansas' liquor system, laws, and distribution, are not only a fine example of something that works well, but also contribute to local economies by supporting the small retail liquor store industry. That tax base alone is a valuable asset. There is no reason why this legislative change is necessary.

Vote NO.. We do not want Dillons/Kroger/Kwik Shop being the only place we can buy our spirits. Is it not bad enough that they are the only ones other than walmart we can buy grocereys- so much for competition, Same with Gas, Kwik shop is about all thats left in this run down dump they call Hutchinson. If you pass this, I'll be forced to buy a Diesel truck so I can fuel up anywhere but Kwikshop. Im was considering moving to Mo. and passing this will just be more reason for me to move.
It will also increase access to minors. I support my locally-owned Kansas retail store owner, who is also my neighbor, and ask all legislators to oppose any changes to the current system.
