of all the substances people intoxicate themselves with, alcohol is the least restricted and causes the most harm. Many illegal drugs are more dangerous to those who use them, but are relatively to obtain, which limits their , alcohol is omnipresent, so far more people suffer its adverse effects.
No Western country has alcohol since America abolished Prohibition in 1933. It is popular and easy to produce. Making it illegal enriches criminals and starts turf wars.In-recent years governments have begun other drugs. , to limit the harm caused by alcohol, states have tried to discourage people from drinking, using taxes, awareness campaigns and on where, when and to whom alcohol is .
The alcohol industry has pitched itself as part of the 10 . In Britain more than 100 producers and retailers have 11 a "responsibility deal" and promised to "help people to drink within guidelines", mostly by buying ads promoting moderation. However, if these campaigns were 12 , they would ruin their sponsors' finances. According to researchers from the Institute of Alcohol Studies, a think-tank, and the University of Sheffield, some two-fifths of alcohol 13 in Britain is in excess of the recommended weekly maximum of 14 units (about one glass of wine per day). Industry executives say they want the public to "drink less, but drink better", meaning fewer, fancier liquor. But people would need to pay 22-98% more per drink to 14 the revenue loss that such a steep drop in consumption would cause.
Health 15 have taken note of such arithmetic. Some now wonder if Liquor Giant is 16 in its efforts to 17 alcohol abuse. In 2018 America's National Institutes of Health stopped a $100m study of 18 drinking, which was partly funded by alcohol firms, 19 its design was biased in their products' favour. And this year the World Health organization and England's public-health authority banned their staff from working with the industry.
Producers are ready to fend 20 regulators.In 1999 alcohol firms invested half as much on lobbying in America as tobacco firms did.Today they spend 31% more.
