I grew up in a family and community where, unfortunately, lots of people normalized drinking vast amounts of alcohol. I'm sure lots of them remain unaware of the arguments against booze, from a health-standpoint. One of the best things our government could do would be to subject alcohol to the aggressive anti-smoking campaigns of the 1990s. But that would require real courage, not a lot of performative posturing. It won't be so easy to take on America's favorite legal drug.
Definitely won’t be easy, you’re right. I do think we will naturally end up in the same place with booze that we are now with cigarettes but it’s a beast. It’s a long game for sure.
