ArtBar Protective Legislation Floridians do not realize how well they are protected through legislation undertaken in Tallahassee. Look at beer drinkers for example. Thanks to past Florida legislators, the state's beer drinkers are separated from some of the finest beer products in the world. There is a Florida law that stipulates the size of the container that beer must be sold in, if it's sold, by the can or bottle.
Overseas beer is likely to be measured via the metric system or in liters or fractions thereof.
A bill struggling its way through the legislature would remove that prohibition on bottle or can volume. The answer is obvious. Florida's legislature is sometimes used as an instrument to limit competition. This is not an earth shaking revelation on its own. However, it should remind citizens that politicians are too often employed for one-upsmanship for one faction over others.
