They should have had it be sold through the Liquor Marts.

Agree on the first point, but I'm very glad they didn't put it in the Liqour Marts. The government doesn't need to be in the retail business, this isn't Cuba. Much better to create a bunch of new business ventures and fill storefronts across the city than to just expand the Liqour Mart presence. Also they need the pricing to be competitive or people will just continue to buy it from illegal sources or grow it themselves. I'm assuming it's a lot harder to keep your prices competitive when you have union staff making $20/hour just to work a cash register.
