[QUOTE="djinwa, post: 797019, member: 8265"] Yep, ban alcohol and then Mexico can smuggle that in too, and make the wars down there with drug lords even worse. We can send more of our troops to fight that. Except we don't have any money. Alot of people think the government should ban people from eating too many hamburgers. The choices are to ban and police every bad habit, or let people suffer the consequences. I'll take the latter, as you can't get enough police to enforce bans, and they usually increase crime, which we all pay for. And by the way, there isn't any money for more police and bureaucracies. We don't let people experience consequences. If you drink and drive there should be permanent license removal. If you drink and drive and kill someone, you get the death penalty. I bet behavior would improve pretty soon. If people didn't have the government and others providing unlimited healthcare, they'd probably drink less and eat better and exercise more, etc, etc. [/QUOTE]
