A Web Awash in Liquor Ads, Promoting Moderation

Seriously speaking, drinking has always been a huge issue for these decades. To make matters worse, the economic depression may even drives people to seek for comfort, or a shelter to temporarily unload the heavy pressure on their shoulder, forgetting all the intolerable undesirability, even for merely a few moment. Sadly to say, very few people are able to control themselves, but to give in to the temptation of the liquor, beer, and wine. As a result, the market of alcoholic beverages is bound to grow.

We all realize or have heard that “alcohol is a poison.”. It’s absolutely got the force to make one turn into another one, someone you totally don’t recognize. Well said! I can’t agree more. I have seen one of my close families turned into a monster, a stranger, and an idiot, doing stupid things, saying stupid and silly words. And that is the last thing I want to see again. I don’t want it to happen anymore. Much to all my family’s relief, after continuous persuasion and concerning his own health condition, he’s not drinking a lot recently.

However, does everyone know when to stop?

We need efforts from all circles to promote moderation for sure.

Indeed, the responsibility campaign is an effective counterweight to activists who seek to limit or ban advertising for beer, wine and liquor. Enjoying alcohol isn’t bad. What matters is that we ought to enjoy it in an absolutely responsible and moderate way.

All in all, as citizens of the global village, let’s endeavor to better the world!(267)
