Admit then,...........NZ has a drinking problem, always has.
and its those big bastards the so-called Alcohol Industry that spend $200,000 A DAY !!! advertising alcohol !! Thats whats most Shocking.
Is the alcohol industry TAXED !! $200,000 a day people that money could be put to far better use. not sure if raising the drinking age would help ??

In Holland the drinking age is 16 and none act like idiots like our 18 and 20 year old..In my time as a teen it was nothing like these drinking violent animals today and I wouldn't called them women but drunken idiots..
