Can anyone actually make a convincing argument why alcohol is good actually? I'm not straight edge, I'll have a drink or two once or twice a week. But it seems obvious to me that the world would be a better place without alcohol.

    Addictive personalities will find anything they can to get their dopamine fix. That's a mental health issue not an alcohol issue. This would make more sense if you were talking about drugs designed to get people addicted and fund pharmaceutical companies.

      I want a world without those drugs also yes. And yes alcohol isn't often a root issue, it's underlying mental health or societal issues. But still the best possible world we could have doesn't have alcohol in it

          That's because I don't want to ban it. The argument I'm making is that in the best possible world we could have, alcohol isn't part of it
