Funny thing is that's what the bill has written into it... You don't HAVE to be open on Sunday but if you'd like go for it...

And this whole non-sense about losing customers... c'mon. If i have to drive 5 miles to get beer because my usual store isn't open on Sundays, its not like i'm gonna skip them on every other day of the week especially when they're only 6 blocks away.

Everyone is always complaining about the government telling people what to do and small business owners do it more than a lot of people i know, but they're totally ok with good ole' guberment doing it on this one... hypocritical.
