Alcohol needs to be banned
Re: Alcohol needs to be banned
Maybe banning alcohol wouldn't be enough, imo.
We need to enforce compulsory practice of sports by the masses, like in North Korea.
Everyone should lead a healthy lifestyle by law requirement. No alcohol, no drugs, lots of sports and everyone must drink only water. Hitler would have liked that, imo. Anything else would be degeneracy, basically the current state of the West.

Anyway, as I'm sure you've realized by now, you and others have decided to chalk up my grandfather under the "tolerable loss".
Please tell me, when does death and harm become a "tolerable" trade-off and when is it not tolerable? What is the threshold. This is the same question which is basically asked in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=6590
I think that the consensus which all you drunken bastards have at this point is that there is some (strange) concept of "X amount of death is OK, Y amount is not". Where is the threshold?
Why is it OK that my sister dies if she's hit by a drunk driver? How many of my sisters need to die before it's no longer OK?
In practice it turns out living involves the risk of dying. Thats a risk many people are willing to take to be able to also enjoy life.

If people are stupid enough to consume alcohol while knowing that it's bad for them, then they deserve what comes to them. There is no cure for idiocy, and if there was, we wouldn't have problems in society.
Banning isn't the solution though, just legalize drugs and shit and tax the crap out of it. More money for govt, less incentive to buy said products.
Also, prohibition has been tried and failed in the united states, which means it may not work elsewhere either; but then again, Europe is different so it may work there idk.

Taxing the crap out of alcohol is pretty much what Norwegian government are doing. And there are a lot of restrictions as well. The government has a monopoly to sell wine and spirit - more than 4,7 vat alcohol. You have to go to special stores to buy wine and spirits. I enjoy more liberal alcohol politics when I travel abroad - but I appreciate a more restrictive alcohol politics at home.
I think many countries could do well with more restrictions

People would just continiue to buy drugs etc. in the streets if u tax the crap out of it...
Tbh. for me a life without alcohol would be pretty boring. So many awesome moments, stories etc. happen when u go out and drink with your boys!

Most ppl will not support organized crime though - but if the tax are to high you will get a black marked. And we have a black marked in Norway - but I dont think its very big.

Re: Alcohol needs to be banned
Why should people be penalized for drinking? In moderation, unlike other drugs, it does no harm to you whatsoever. It's not particularly addictive (takes a long time to get hooked) either. The only time it is an issue is when some use it to excess. And the majority of responsible drinkers should not be penalized for the crimes of the few.
It is not the governments job to dictate morality to its citizens.

Re: Alcohol needs to be banned
I'd be sad if alcohol were to be prohibited. It has had a very positive role in my life actually. Lots of fun and Im blessed with a good drunk personality. Some people get aggressive, but for me alcohol literally sucks out every bit of venom or spice I have. The notion that alcohol turns people into aggressive people that just want to fight or sth is completely wrong for me, and actually the same for almost all my friends.

Re: Alcohol needs to be banned
though I dont like to pay more than you do in EU or USA - I still would support a more restrictive alcohol policy - like we have in Norway and Sweden. Prohibition is not the answer - but alcohol needs to be regulated. And that is my final judgement! lol - over and out

Actually it does tons of harm to you, even in moderation (the same, proportionately). As much as I don't otherwise disagree with you, please refrain from making such rash claims without a foundation for them.

Just stick to drinking microbrew beers and wine from good wineries. Don't buy cheap shit and also don't drink often either.
