For once I kind of agree with SJW inasmuch as it doesn’t seem unreasonable to suppose there could be a small increased risk of cancer due to the pleasutable activity of drinking, as indeed there is a small increased risk of an early death due to the pleasurable activity of driving a small sports car fast up a curvy hill road, having unprotected sex with brazilian prostitutes, smoking 20 a day, eating enormous T-bone steaks… where I disagree is that it is the government’s job to take our money, at gunpoint, essentially, in order to give it to drab nonentities with bad breath and worse teeth who then proceed to bore us to fucking death with non sequiturs and misinformation.

The government’s job is to keep unwanted furriners out and to collect the rubbish. And they’re precious little use at either.
