    When you live in a society that takes everything away from you for having a couple beers and getting a DUI. Now a casual once a week drinker has just become an alcoholic. What else do these people have or to look forward too, America spends hundreds of billions on war campaigns in countries that don’t want? us there and we send the homeless and mentally ill out to the street to parish from hunger and exposure…GOD WTF AMERICA!!!
