Will selling liquor stores help balance the budget?

Written by  Scott LaMar, Director of Radio Smart Talk

We've been down this road before. Past Governors and lawmakers have proposed the idea, but there's never been, as Governor Rendell calls it, "political consensus." Some oppose the idea strictly on economic grounds, but others fear a loss of jobs for state-owned liquor store workers, and others question whether private stores would be less stringent about not serving minors.


Guests:
Pennsylvania State Representative Mike Turzai (28th legislative district); House Republican Whip

Wendell Young IV, President, United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 1776
