This on top of younger generations not drinking nearly as much.

When a few beers cost as much as a 12 pack and a DUI can completely derail your life, I don't blame them.

Well, I mean... a DUI should derail one's life, otherwise it could ruins someone else's life.

My point being grandpa would be forced to pour out his car beer before spending the night in the drunk tank, receiving a small fine without even missing work. The punishments today are harsh and life-altering. They're so successful as a deterrent that many young people just don't even see the point in drinking at all, hence the reduced drinking in gen Z.

thats why they are trying to legislate weed and ozempic. both of these reduce alcohol consumption.
