I post a lot too. This community welcomes that!

Gosh I was just thinking the same thing,
I feel like every time I watch TV another add for a wine spritzer comes on. And might I add, if alcohol can lead to the following:

Liver cancer
Esophageal cancer
Hypertension
Pancreatitis
Gastritis
Alcohol-related dementia
Then why is it still advertised so heavily??
You don’t see that with cigarettes

I might post this separately.

Why is alcohol associated with every holiday? ! Not just St Patrick’s day. But Fourth of July, gosh on Thanksgiving my husband sees a lot of intoxicated patients.

Also every celebrity has an alcoholic beverage now: Cameron Diaz, Christy Brinkley, George Clooney, JLo, Cindy Crawford, VanHalen

It’s in every grocery and convenience store. Still in print ads in magazines (cigarettes aren’t).

How come the Marlboro man is banned? But alcohol is everywhere?
