What I would like to see is a total public health analysis of alcohol use. The total health benefits vs. the total health problems as a result of alcohol use in our society (not french, german, etc.). My guess is that the total loss of health (mental, physical, emotional) far outweighs any benefits that could be attained by moderate use of alcohol.

There was a Harvard study a while back that looked at the risk of DEATH against alcohol consumption. Answer: Two drinks per day minimized death as an outcome, and was better than being a tea-totaller. One or three drinks were better than none, but four or more were worse than none.
I think I'll go home and have a couple of glasses with dinner.
