Alcohol violence is just another expression of this income disparity. The underlying problem will only be solved by rectifying the wealth imbalances. Otherwise, let the rich get richer and we learn to accept a more violent society. Plain but true.
Hi pierogi.
In the good old days, we had poor people as well and pubs closed at 10.00 PM. Drinking age was 21 years.
Now , drinking venues go all night. If you weren't poor before going in, you would be coming out.
Wealth distribution is happening voluntarily, by weak minded kids drinking to excess.
If we gave them more money , then there would be more Alcohol deaths and people in wheel chairs.
That my friend is Plain and true
In my youth I never saw such violent and disgusting display of behaviour as I do now. The only real thing that has changed is the opening hours.
Close ALL drinking venues at midnight.That will get drunks of our streets and give emergency service a chance to mop up before daylight.
If you want to drink yourself stupid, then do it at home, where it will be safer for you and the innocent public.
If you are worry about money, it's also cheaper to drink at home.
