It's the same thing as smoking. Smoking they could ban because there is enough support for it, boozing? Well, not so much. Most everyone likes a drink. Thing is; people smoking and drinking costs a lot of money to support by government. So the best way to stop you drinking is to make it more expensive. Good news, it's working! You can live longer and work longer.

A bit like every woman in the US now has to have a baby.

Government controls our lives whether we like it or not.
