In the paper today, an article that states liquor pricing will likely increase when privatization launches on June 1st. Of course prices may not go up if you only purchase liquor from a certain warehouse store, or if you purchase only cheap stuff. So hurray for the unrefined and homeowners with third bedrooms that can be turned into liquor vaults. For the rest of us 25-72% price increases await, as the wholesalers pass on the cost of the rules of the privatization in the voter measure and the cost of being able to sell to four times more customers than before. Not that I believe the biggest proponent of last fall's voter measure somehow has tilted the playing field to their advantage...
We only have ourselves to blame.
