Nanny State States

In a story on NPR’s All Things Considered yesterday about wine making in New York’s Finger Lakes region, I was shocked to hear that in New York it is against the law for grocery stores to sell wine. I don’t even drink wine and find this very offensive. It is not just the federal government that is a nanny state. Nullification of federal laws by the states is a great idea, but there are thousands of state laws that need to be nullified as well. This stupid law in New York is one of them.
