One or two people who have been exposed to the effects of Alcoholism find it
less useful.
Alcohol is oh so wonderfully civilized!

75,000 Alcohol related deaths per year in the USA.

That death number to me is not the number with proper impact.
It's the way it slowly destroys lives.
Don't know what that number is.
