Too much alcohol?

I think so.

This would be less worrying if Australians as a society found ways to socialize where alcohol wasn't a part of it.

I drink alcohol but whenever I read articles like this I think about switching to tea, another drug of addiction with considerably less damaging consequences.

I wonder how we reached a point where alcohol is the common ingredient in socialising? We have a meal - and drink. We head out with friends - and drink. We gather with colleagues - and drink.

I guess it's not the drinking per se that's the problem, but the quantity. So why as a nation do we struggle so much in drinking to excess?
