Zeus_LLC 10/14/20 5:46:16 PM #11:	Alcohol is probably the single greatest cause of society's problems. Across the board it's linked to domestic abuse, traffic accidents, violence, rape, and other criminal conduct, as well as generally lowering societal productivity. And without alcohol, a lot of other nonsense -- like sporting events -- would likely go by the wayside because people usually need a buzz to watch them. Metalsonic66 posted...

wwinterj25 10/14/20 5:46:33 PM #12:	It can be both or none at all but whatever the case I'm sure there are more effective and less harmful painkillers than poisoning your body and if you have a drink problem it's best to get help.

Alcohol directly influences behavior by reducing impulse control, as well as causing other problems due to loss of coordination, etc. Anybody who believes that a driver is as reliable intoxicated as he is sober is... well, there's not a good word for a belief that stupid.

Alcohol consumption is both a symptom of and a cause for that lack of personal responsibility. You have entire generations that have been scarred by alcohol, with babies being impacted by alcohol use before they were even born who, after being born, are put into negative environments due to alcohol consumption and very frequently grow up with issues resulting from both factors which, among other things, drive their own alcohol consumption.
