Fear for the people of Minnesota:
Around 300 bars and restaurants in Minnesota will not be able to buy alcohol until the state reaches a budget agreement and ends its government shutdown. Since closing down all but the most important services on July 1, the state has stopped issuing the $20 buyer cards required by retailers to replenish their alcohol inventories — bad news for Minnesotans already hurting from the cuts to their social services.

Restaurants are already reporting being low on inventories, and Frank Ball, the executive director of the Minnesota Licensed Beverage Association, calls the situation “crippling” to the alcohol retail industry.

Hey! Remember this is the state that gave you lutefisk, Michele Bachmann AND Tim Pawlenty. Oh, for the days when we had Jesse "the Governor" Ventura!
