Governor Tom Corbett announced his plans to privatize the liquor system in Pennsylvania. That means in the future, you will be able to buy beer and wine where you shop for food.
The process will bring in, $1 billion to fund education. Corbett says it'll be used to create the "passport for learning block grant" which will focus on four areas: school safety, enhanced early education programs, individualized learning and science , technology and engineering and math courses and programs.
State Senator Jake Corman says he thinks it's a good move, if it's done the right way. "I think if we could find a way to make sure we sustain and improve upon the selection and convenience, we aught to look at a way to do that , that's what consumers want."
Governor Corbett's plan also calls for heaftier fines for selling to minors and those who are visibly intoxicated. The penalty now ranges from $1,000-$5,000. But that fine will increase to anywhere between $5,000 and $10,000.
