MANIFESTO

This item couldn't help but catch my eye:
Alcohol consumption is linked to one in every 25 deaths worldwide, according to a study that concludes the effects of drinking are as harmful as smoking.
The reference to smoking is an interesting one, since the US government has finally done something about its injurious effects.

As much as it'd be nice if something comparable could be done about the horrific effects of overindulgence, it's been shown time and time again that nothing can be done other than ensure that we as individuals don't fall prey to John Barleycorn's horrid effects.
