Inconvenient Truth: The Threat of Global Drying
After seeing what Al Gore did with a few facts for Global Warming debate, I thought I would raise awareness about the looming threat of Global Drying. Everything you are about to read is true.
The Report on world alcohol consumption is out, and this video makes fun of it. Canadian alcohol consumption is not a joke it is down to just 7.8 liters per person per year.
The reporter portrays Canada as a nation of drinkers but the truth is, in 2 minutes she drinks more than the average Canadian does in an entire week. Canada has now slipped to #23 in world alcohol consumption behind even the United States which is now ranked at #20.
Alcohol consumption has been falling in the USA too at an alarming rate.
Historically when America was a powerful and respected nation we drank at least 4 or even 5 times as much alcohol per person as we do now. Today when you read about European laborers or British sailors being given a gallon of beer per day to do their jobs you almost think it is a misprint. In Ben Franklin's print shop workers were provided 16 pints of beer per day. Now days in most places if you even take a drink at work they will fire you.
Alcohol is healthy, in fact if in the USA if more doctors were like Dr. Tiki and advised people to drink moderately 80,000 fewer people per year would die each year. In the USA 1 in 3 people abstain from the health benefits of alcohol, in Canada it is 1 in 5 and in Europe it is just 1 in 20. This has to stop, if you don't have a tiki bar build one before it is too late, invite your friends over and serve them a cocktail. It is a fact people who drink in moderation are healthier and live longer than those who don't, please do not allow some one you care about to die needlessly because you would not mix them a cocktail.
We all know that people who drink are more fun then those who don't, but did you know they are usually smarter too.
We have to urge our government to act and act now! The government refuses to allow alcohol producers to tell anyone of the health benefits of their products. Meanwhile millions are being spent to try to cut alcohol consumption even lower. Nearly a dozen states with a .08 BAC level have proposed reducing this level to .06 or lower. Washington State has actually had legislation proposed to make even .02 illegal. This level is exceeded by consuming less than one drink or
by simply using mouthwash. Since half of all intoxicated drivers involved in fatal accidents have a BAC of .17 (nearly nine times higher than .02) or greater, is the real interest here in stopping drunk driving accidents or in stopping all drinking? You the drinking voter must become involved. If your local politician proposes laws like these you need to vote them out.
Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Prohibition was a dark chapter of American history filled with economic depression and crime. We didn't recover until alcohol was legalized again. The Holocaust and the 9/11 attacks were both perpetrated by evil people with one thing in common. Hitler and Bin Laden both hated the USA and both abstained from alcohol.
So please stop global drying and do what ever you can to spread alcohol. There will be health, less violence and more prosperity because you cared enough to have another drink.
Thank you.

Scary, Kirk! I will do my part this year to increase US alcohol consumption! By the way, the Czechs are still #1 for alcohol consumption worldwide, according to a TV show that was on the other night (I might have been drinking then though.) :)

I think the reports are skewed and that america is the number one consumer of alcohol. We already know america consumes more than everything of everything else. Must be beer too. And I think america also has some of the finest brews the planet has ever known.

Czechs may still be #1 for beer consumption (156.9 liters per year) US is #13 and Canada is #19 on that list. Luxembourg is #1 in overall alcohol consumption in the world at between 15.5 to 15.8 liters alcohol per person per year. However they may not be drinking all of it themselves, prices are reasonable there so many of their neighbors visit and buy/drink alcohol.
Thanks for listening to my message, now go mix some Mai Tais or plan a blow out party and counter the damage being done to the world by these prohibitionists and teetotalers.
Sorry ladies, I'm saving my lips for Lala

The global warming people have all flown their private jets to Copenhagen to discuss the problems of global warming, where is the global drying summit being held? We drinkers are the ones who face powerful rich enemies, we need some powerful friends and we need a strategy to fight this and we need it now. I just read a sobering report (pardon the pun) about one of our biggest opponents and we need to start countering their efforts or we will all see prohibition again in our lifetimes.
In four years the Robert Wood Johnson foundation has spent over a quarter of a Billion dollars ($265,000,000.00) inventing lies and spreading prohibitionist propaganda, organizing protests, forming front organizations by the hundreds and campaigning for any law that will restrict your right to drink or impede your access to legal alcoholic beverages.
Spending money to spread half truths and lies is a very effective. When Joseph Goebbels was pushing his evil on an entire nation he said "tell any lie often enough and people will believe it". If I bought a quarter of a billion dollars in manure and hired thousands of people to spread it around, soon you could not walk anywhere in the country without stepping in some of it. After a while you might even get used to the smell.
In the US every organization that supports a tough new anti-drinking law, or tries to redefine "binge drinking" as having three drinks, or the scientist that finds alcohol is somehow bad for you can all be found to be run by, or be taking money from this foundation. They are so insidious I challenge anyone to find any organization or politician that opposes alcohol that is not owned by them or does not take their money.

HELP STOP GLOBAL WARMING!!!!!!!!!
The data is CONCLUSIVE!!!! The LESS Americans drink, the MORE the earths temperature rises. It is clear that fermented Grapes and barley MUST pass through the human system in LARGE quantities as ANYTHING that is happening at the same time Like Decreased Drinking, decreased piracy, co2 levels etc is CLEARLY to blame for Global warming!!!!!!
My buddies & I have been doing our part by attempting to drink more but the evidence is clear, we must ALL drink MORE to stop global warming. Ive volunteered to use the carbon credit money to hold a HUGE beer bash/ climate adjuster, but Al Gore wont dispense the cash...........

Boy do I feel silly, Global drying appears to be a hoax when you look at the long term data. Just like Al Gore did with his global warming, I got all bent out of shape by analyzing just 20 years of data, and I called a short term trend an alarming pattern which would result in 0.0 alcohol consumption in a few decades if it continued. I recently obtained over 150 years of US alcohol consumption data and it is very encouraging. Thanks to the efforts of everyone on this forum alcohol consumption is now on the rise again for the first time in decades.
More importantly is the overall trend line which shows a general increase in the consumption of alcohol over the century and a half. Not coincidentally we also just recently had a major increase in life expectancy in this country which is partly due to the increase in alcohol consumption and it appears the alcohol consumption trend line and the life expectancy trend lines seem to go up at the same rate.
