Ron Paul's growing support

Like eliminating Happy Hour in Utah? Why should the Mormons care what non-Mormons are doing?

If it's that important to a non-mormon, I suppose they could move.

That looks like it's going to happen anyway. Should the federal gov't be able to step in and say they can't do that and happy hour should be allowed?

Why then allow states to make their own laws anymore? Let the federal gov't run all these bitches!

That's a great example.

Some people think it's a bad idea to offer financial incentives for people to drink within a limited timeframe -- particularly when the vast majority of those people are just leaving work and will be driving home afterward.

Other people just want to inhibit drinking in general (and I assume a subset of those are Mormons).

If enough of those people can get a bill passed that bans happy hour, what's the problem with it?

The law has nothing to do with the Mormon religion, but some of the motivation behind limiting alcohol sales is clearly religiously-driven.

What if a bar wanted to offer an incentive that if you could drink seven shots of any drink within 30 seconds, all seven shots are free? Is that a good idea too?
