Alcohol abuse is rampant in the area I live. So much bad comes of it. Broken homes, deaths, violence… it’s just bad. Society as a whole needs things like alcoholic drinks to lighten the mood, help folks relax or party. I don’t understand why alternatives that are safer (like marijuana) aren’t legal and distributed in bars the way alcohol is. A bar full of people who just had a cannabis drink would be just as fun as one that had alcoholic drinks and would be less harmful to society. No need to ban alcohol, but with alternatives in place less people would go to it.
