Regulating any ABC establishments in the first place is a waste of time and effort. There are sets of rules such as no contact that are designed to keep our employees and yes, even our customers safe. Real life issues occur on the streets all day every day.  Currently there is a REAL issue happening with state/united states currency. Instead of directing your attention and energy to something that doesn't need it, or "help" in the first place, why can't the authority and regulators start putting their energy into something that really needs it. Attacking the ABC establishments based on morality is not going to help anything or anyone. The only thing it will do is cut into funds that these beautiful and smart women earn from people who walk into the bar knowing what they are going to see. It will cut into the funds that some women earn to put themselves through school, or those of us like myself who only have to work from 10pm to 2am. this means that my children and husband see me right before they go to sleep. When they wake up i am at home and i am the first thing they see. so who is morally right? the one who has to work 18 hours a day because the cost of living is ridiculous in this state, or the one who makes a good amount of money in only 4 hours and can be home while her family sleeps and they are never missing her?  If any authority or official really wants to help, start directing your attention to something that really matters, not something in a controlled environment that supposedly isn't the same thing as art.
