The author suggests additional restrictions against alcohol in favor of increasing productivity, a common argument for the failed experiment of prohibition. Since when is my productivity his problem?

He also simultaneously cites the Arab world as an example of an alcohol-free society, yet makes no mention of the relatively low productivity rates there.

No one should feel compelled to drink and I support people who want to reduce their alcohol consumption. In the meantime, I have yet to see a compelling argument for heavily restricting alcohol.
