What is Wrong with Cheap Alcohol?
I was reading this news article about The Warehouse possibly selling beer and wine.
I think: Cool! Cheap alcohol! But other people do not like the idea. Apparently it will encourage binge-drinking, especially in children. Apparently you have to keep alcohol prices relatively high otherwise bad things happen. Apparently people with less money can't be trusted with too much alcohol.
What I want to know is: why should rich people be the only ones able to afford to binge-drink?
