Except you DO have to get a license to sell booze and you DO have to have a
public hearing where anyone can come to say 'no you cannot sell booze here'
and then give reasons.

Oh, and I don't want the collar, I chafe easily.  But I like the sex ration
stamps, especially if they have an expiration date so I can go to my
girlfriend and say:  Baby, we have to have sex right now, our coupons are
about to expire.
