If you make it easy for people to do it, they will do it, if you make it hard, they won't.

Thank God we hav a government to make decisions for the masses and to limit people's choices for them. To hell with those who can handle life with responsibility, we need a government that rules for the least responsible among us.

These Prohibitionists and quasi-Prohibitionists amaze me. They totally ignore the fact that alcoholic beverages have been with us as long as civilization. In fact, it can be argued that alcoholic beverages caused us to become civilized in the first place. Wine came about just about the time that we stopped being cavemen. From the very first civilizations, wine and then later, beer and mead, played a prominent role.

In fact, the only major civilization and/or religion to make serious inroads with Prohibition is the Muslims. And that makes you think. Why are Muslims so hateful and so damn uptight about everything? If Muslims were able to let off a little steam every weekend at the local pub or tavern, you think they might loosen up a little? I'm being totally serious. I think the lack of alcoholic beverages is a major contributor to the Muslim problem. When I think of civilization, I think of a major city where you can go to a restaurant with friends or your significant other and have a nice dinner with a bottle of wine or a good beer. Or going to a sports bar on a Sunday afternoon and watching a football game over a few mugs of beer with several hundred others. The Muslims have never known that. Maybe that's why they hate us so much.
