Alcohol has been around for many years in many different forms. Alcohol has also caused its fair share of problems since people started drinking it, but society cannot seem to let it go. Drinking alcohol not only causes damage to the liver, heart, pancreas, and stomach, but it also affects one’s judgement and causes him or her to not think clearly. Alcohol slows down every reaction in someone’s body, but makes them feel very calm and sometimes even confident. Driving while under the influence…
My contemporary message is for others to not drink and drive. Alcohol has many disadvantages on our brains including weakening the activities of the mind, harming our thinking, cognitive abilities, and muscle coordination. All these capabilities are vital for driving a vehicle safely. Thus, operating a car after being drunk causes severe problems including death. Even you can get imprisoned if you are caught to be driving while intoxicated. It continues, and we hear about many incidents…
is weak due to the most popular places, such as fast-food chains, are affected by the ban. You would also have to go out of your way to buy more soda which is a huge inconvenience and it will cost more money, simply because you want an unhealthy beverage. The text “Soda’s a Problem But...” Klein argues against People would simply buy two 16-ounce cups” (Klein 289). This is illogical because it will cost more money to buy multiple cups of soda, which would cost more amount of money and they may…
consume any alcoholic beverage until they are the age of 21. They also teach the young population that they should be very responsible when consuming alcohol beverages, because of intoxication are very dangerous. Within in the future the United States will be working on more research on the effects of alcohol at each age group and understanding what environments tend to lead to more alcoholic consumption, and what we can do to stop it.

seem like consuming alcoholic beverages makes one more of an adult and more mature. For example, one in five of the top one hundred country songs make some sort of reference to alcohol. This reputation that the media has made for alcohol is what fuels alcoholism. Celebrities and professional athletes are role models for a lot of people. When their role model drinks alcohol people are likely to follow. People need to realize that alcohol is not the amazing and miracle-working beverage the media…

In the summary I found in Collins library as stated in the citation above, he reports factual evidence and statistics to show both sides of people who argue with drunk driving and those who said the problem was, “Exaggerated and overregulated.” The debate continues with both sides stating why and why not they agree and disagree with the matter of people driving drunk. Should they continue regulating…
older either become codependent of the alcoholic or want to get away from all of that. As the speaker from the meeting mentioned, that her son decided to move out of the house because he wanted to get away from all the troubles his mom had with the drinking. Many times the individual begins to isolate himself or herself from everyone else because all they want to be doing is drinking; and others are not accepting of the addiction they have. Now, when the alcoholic person has a spouse the…
punished every state that allowed persons below 21 to purchase alcoholic beverages reducing its annual federal highway apportionment by ten percent. Since then, all 50 states and the District of Columbia have prohibited selling alcoholic beverages for those people who are under the 21 age so that they do not lose the 10% funds.
