I'll start over since I sounded like I might have had something to drink. As much as you hear about how we are in shortage of alcohol..you can still find it. And more people are making it at home too.

Yes, it is an issue we can live without. But it's hard for many to break.

Everyone needs to drink moderately, but it isn't easy to do.

So sad to see young people's addiction! In Germany people who drive a car while they are drunk will be prosecuted by the penal law. I hope Italian lawsmakers will adopt the same law.

Great post with interesting info!

Have a nice week :_)

Australia is apparently 9.5 per capita. Some very high statistics for a lot of countries!
