All sorts of connotations no matter what the state does. They say don't
drink because it is bad for you, but now our stores are open Sunday so you
can buy even more of it.

Small stores don't want the supermarkets to take their business. The number
of sales is about constant no matter how many outlets or how many hours they
are open. So, why add more hours and pay more labor for the same sales?
But if the guy down the street stays open an hour later, I must also.

I've never had a crisis because the liquor stores closed at 8:00 PM or are
not open Sunday. Even the local drunks learned to plan ahead. I prefer the
larger stores as they have a better selection to choose from. The state
controls the price so that is not a consideration in many states.
