Liquor Ads
Alcoholics don’t need any added incentives to buy liquor, yet the markets and drug stores continue to advertise “liquor specials.” During the holiday season accidents involving drunken drivers continue to proliferate and all the public TV announcements--If you drink don’t drive, etc. are meaningless.
