Personally, i only drink casually and am not affected either way by the decision, except for the fact it could bring jobs to this community and open up many buinesses, especially resteraunt wise.
As i said in my first post, the closest place to get alcohol if you live in Corbin or london is Jellico TN. Problem with that is, a case of bud light in Richmond is about 18 bucks, give or take. In Jellico, with TN taxes, your lucky if you get a case for 25, so pretty much a dollar a beer.
If you do drive to Richmond, which from exit 25 or 29 in Corbin, is about 60 miles away, your out more gas money than you would have been going to Jellico.
So who gets all the money, bootleggers. Untaxed money that they will sell to a 10 year old if hes got enough cash. Plus at most bootleggers its a dollar a beer, from what ive been told :biggrin: so your paying the same you would in Tenn.

I think a lot of people are scared of some of the buinesses it might being in, but at the same time, if you dont like those businesses, dont go.

I'm filling my pick-up truck right NOW! Give me two hours and I will driving through a town near you...
