Quoted: Not as effective as prohibition. Whether or not you agree with the validity of the NIAAA, and I honestly don't care about it. Objectively, all he said was that they might change the federal recommendations. That's it. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: And for all the millions of taxpayer dollars spent, how effective has the NIAAA been? Whether or not you agree with the validity of the NIAAA, and I honestly don't care about it. Objectively, all he said was that they might change the federal recommendations. That's it. I meant how effective has the NIAAA been at preventing alcoholism. Not at all as far as I can tell. I'm not an alcoholic, but I had never heard of them before today. |

Quoted: The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) was created under Nixon's administration. You guys are falling for outrage bait. The man's job is literally to tell people not to be alcoholics. View Quote Irrelevant to my point. This administration has started a fucking "war on everything". I think it's mostly to demoralize people and get them used to unreasonable restrictions so that when the real bullshit starts we're more conditioned to it. See the fucking covid farce as a prefect example. This is just the latest. Maybe the NIAAA was started then, but guess what? This is the first I've ever heard of it. Is this a coincidence considering all the other bullshit these assholes are pulling? I think not. |

Quoted: I meant how effective has the NIAAA been at preventing alcoholism. I'd say none at all. A complete waste, just like most other .gov entities for the last 150 years or so. View Quote |

Quoted: If you want to be healthy, it is. Daily boozing isn't healthy, and many people that have "a couple" a day find a way to cheat the definition of a couple. I know I sure did when I was boozing every day. View Quote I don't give a shit if you cheated when counting drinks, that's not a valid reason to attribute the same lack of self control to the rest of us. And yes, I've had more than two beers tonight. But I've also had less than 24 YTD, so... |

The last thing this admin needs is people sobering up.
That would be bad for them. |
|
Doesn't surprise me.
A Benjamin Franklin once said, beer is a sign from God, that he wants mankind to be happy. |

Now I’m starting to think they are just throwing shit to see what sticks.......

Quoted: Yeah, but it's not healthy. That's a statement of fact. You can drink yourself into a coma if you want, but he's not going to endorse that lifestyle. He's actually doing his job correctly as a civil servant. View Quote Two a week is crazy though, 7-10 seems perfectly reasonable for a healthy adult male. If having a few drinks on Friday night after a week of bs is wrong, I don't want to be right |

View Quote And how many times has this administration's "recommendations" turned into coercion and then bans or mandates? We're fucking sick of it. This may be well intentioned and even sound advice. I DON'T FUCKING CARE. I don't care what this corrupt government has to say about ANYTHING. I don't trust the people and I don't trust their motives. They can keep their noses out of my business and fuck directly off. I will keep my own counsel about how much I drink, how I defend myself, and what household fucking appliances I will use. |

"So, if [alcohol consumption guidelines] go in any direction, it would be toward Canada." |

As long as he frames it in a 'oh no Russia/China!' context, plenty of stupid bastards will put down their Bud Lights. That's the world we live in, sadly.

Congress should be the guinea pig for a year before implementing it widespread.
Unjust laws shouldn't be followed. |
|
Unofficially, they want society full of stupid drunks who can't make good decisions, they're easier to control.

Drug and alcohol test should be required for politicians.
Term limits and harsh insider trading punishments are also needed. |

How are ugly and fat chick's supposed to get shagged and preggo when all guys are supposed to only have a couple beers a week?
