Here's what I want to know:
5% of all deaths from diseases of the circulatory system are
attributed to alcohol.
15% of all deaths from diseases of the respiratory system are
attributed to alcohol.
30% of all deaths from accidents caused by fire and flames are
attributed to alcohol.
30% of all accidental drownings are attributed to alcohol.
30% of all suicides are attributed to alcohol.
40% of all deaths due to accidental falls are attributed to alcohol.
45% of all deaths in automobile accidents are attributed to alcohol.
60% of all homicides are attributed to alcohol.
Why aren't we taxing the crap out of alcohol consumption?
ANSWER ME HENRY WAXWORM!!!
