On restricting or refusing the sale of alcohol
I have nothing to say on the subject of the sale of alcohol, or on a refusal to sell it, but I do recall how annoyed I was to be told in Edinburgh in the late seventies that I couldn't buy a bottle of wine on a Sunday.
In Sweden, the Systembolaget monopoly seemed strange. They used to sell bottles of alcohol in brown paper bags as it was considered antisocial and shameful to be seen carrying the stuff.
To say nothing about the prohibition era in the States.
