Now, are you sure we couldn't squeeze in just a little free beer?

For Mr. Watson to be consistent, yes, free beer would have to be provided to alcoholics. And free cigarettes to smokers.

What about us red-meat-aholics? We need our porterhouse fix too! Hey I think I found an issue to run for office on.

Incorrect. See objection #5:

5. Why not free beer?

The difference between booze and drugs is the fact we don’t have a widespread illegal trade in alcoholic beverages that is fueling crime (unlike during the Prohibition).

My primary interest is crime reduction. For this, we must target the source of this crime. Cost reduction to government agencies is only secondary. If the current drug cartels switched to alcoholic beverages, they will have to compete against established producers - odds are they won't be able to compete - hence no need for free booze (sorry guys).

Beer and cigarettes kick ass!!!!
