But that's the problem a huge majority don't consume alcohol in moderation and with binge drinking on the up and people living for the weekend alcohol will continue to cause mayhem.
People eating food high in fat are also causing massive problems with health systems. Coffee consumption is hurting the health of many people. Cigarretes, well, we know what they do. Why have you chosen only alcohol for banning? Why not control everything people do? 1984.
Dangerous drivers kill tens of thousands and cripple many more all over the world anually. etc, etc, etc.
I am not doubting the problems with alcohol, I just question why alcohol is targeted (I know why it is targeted here). You will find a lot of people that believe that reading the koran is harmful becasue they believe it is not the truth.
