They would likely be most upset you can't make your own liquor legally.
You can, just can't sell it (at least in my state which is one of the stricter ones for alcohol)
Federal law strictly prohibits distilling at home.
Edit: can we just talk for a second about how oppressive the law is for poor people? Do you have $10,000? Cool, give it to us and go home. Oh, you don't have it? FIVE YEARS in a federal penetentary!
Wine or beer isn't liquor. Liquor is distilled spirits. It is against federal law to distill at home
They quoted it!
Big difference (in safety) between homebrew and moonshine.
(Ehhhh not really, if you know what you're doing and throw out the Methyl, which isn't hard, the only "danger" becomes the same as cooking: fire. It's kinda just some leftover prohibition era bullshit.)
