The WHO never saw a commodity it couldn’t tax for the good of the taxpayer.

My, my, they know they can’t try something like the 18th Amendment, so they will tax instead.

The regressives didn’t learn their lesson from Prohibition in America and now they want to implement it globally. They need to be cast off.

We fund this crap. We print money to pay for this crap. We suffer from inflation because of this crap. I won’t even mention the massive cover up by the WHO over the China Pandemic. Just a bunch of globalist lying commies. Defund the WHO.

how does a government levied tax saves live?
the revenue from the tax will never reach its intended recipient.
it does reach the pockets of the bureaucrats and the politicians.

History repeats itself. Volstead Act killed hundreds of thousands as a result of the criminal and economic mayhem that curbs to alcohol consumption caused. But as usual we are destined to repeat mistakes bigger and better.

Funny how the solution to all these suddenly very important problems - problems that seem to come in a continual stream with no let up - the solutions always involve a fee, tax, tariff, or something similar that removes money from my wallet and transfers it to an ever-expanding and intrusive government.

I'm going to say no, as a going in and best-and-final position to any and all proposals and "findings" like this. No more taxes, no more money, no more power to any government or agency. Leave us the **** alone.

Perhaps the only significant "problem" and accompanying "solution" lately that hasn't directly dipped into my wallet has been the scam-demic. Of course they don't want my money (directly, though the government is paying big pharma truckloads of my tax dollars) they've upped their game with this one. Not only is it about money, it is about control of my own body and health. They want to be able to force me to take experimental injections as the "solution" to the so-called crisis.

Obesity kills many times the number of people worldwide every year than alcoholism. Using the WHO’s logic we should tax food much more than alcohol.

“if countries of the WHO European Region were to introduce a minimum level of 15% tax on the retail price per unit of alcohol, regardless of the type of alcoholic beverage, it would save 133,000 lives each year."

133,000? Not 133,001? Not 132,990? Lol.

Filthy moralist thieves. What hypocrisy.

If they don’t want to mandate it, they want to ban it.

If they don’t want to ban it, they want to mandate it.

“For the WHO, the only factor to be considered is health for health’s sake.”

And let me guess where that 15% of taxed alcohol sales goes???
