Taking after our good friends across the border in Canada, the U.S. alcohol czar has decided that we are now to have just two beers a week.
According to the Daily Mail:
Americans could be urged by officials to drink no more than two beers a week as part of strict new alcohol guidelines.
Biden's health czar told DailyMail.com the USDA could revise its alcohol advice to match Canada's, where people are advised to have just two drinks per week.
Dr George Koob — who admits enjoying a couple of glasses of Chardonnay a week — said he was watching Canada's 'big experiment' with interest.
What kind of nonsense is this? It's sure as heck not 'science' given that some people can handle and enjoy quite a bit more of that, and some people cannot. Some people have cultures that thrive on it, and others do not. The point here is that people are the best judges of what's good for them and if beer is their thing, that's their "pursuit of happiness" as the Constitution guarantees.
Oh sure, it's just a 'recommendation.' But in the Age of COVID, since when have "suggestions" stayed suggestions? We know our health authorities "recommended" COVID vaccines -- and heaven help anyone who said 'no.'
We know what they are up to.
Haven't we tried this once before? Hint: It starts with 'P' and we got rid of it as soon as we could.
That they are making Canada of all places the model state to emulate now is enough to give anyone the willies.

The Dims can’t stand themselves.
Another industry under attack.
Look for more federal taxes on all alcoholic beverages.
I want the job for the taste testing alone.
They’re not going to limit alcohol consumption- they get a lot of tax revenue from it, just like with cigarettes. They’ll do a lot of “Harumph” this and “Harumph” that, but they make too much money off of it, not to mention that Prohibition went over like a lead balloon.
To baby sit Hunter?
To govern Russia after Putin is deposed?
Why does the Federal Government have any czars? It’s totally in American.
To pay someone about 250k a year to do nothing.
That’s 25k to the Biden’s.
