In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities.

President Biden’s alcohol czar, Dr. George Koob, told the Daily Mail that the USDA could revise its alcohol recommendations to match Canada’s guidelines.

I think the Biden adminisration will start easy with fines and/or community service for those who break the rules.

The recommended number should be 0, though. There is no debate about it.

'If you drink alcohol of any type, limit your intake. Not drinking alcohol is better for cancer prevention.'
European Code Against Cancer

"There is no safe level of alcohol consumption. Not to drink alcohol is the only way of avoiding its damaging effects. Based on current scientific evidence, no health professional or institution should recommend its consumption as a way of improving any aspect of health."
Spanish Ministry of Health 2020

No level of alcohol consumption is safe for our health.

Good question. There are none, and won't be any. This is just another way to insert Biden overreach syndrome into our lives as a means of saying how dark sleepy Joe is. Koob is Director of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. How people use the word czar for everything is telling.

Drinking more than the recommended amount is directly related to climate change. Don't forget to mask-up everybody!

In terms of what is better for your health. The recommendation from public health officials should be genuine.

If the research says people shouldn't be drinking alcohol than that is what it says.

It's amazing that Biden is both a criminal mastermind and senile at the same time.

.....
Its a recommended limit.

Its not a recommended level of consumption. So if youre going to drink for the benefits it offers - mainly that can be fun and feels good, to a point - then balance that against the detriments. The Dr indicates that balance tips the wrong way at around > 2 per week.

None yet. Similar to the Biden attack on the American fossil fuel industry they can tie up liquor stores in regulations or tax beer heavily like Canada or both. Or not allow beer distribution unless full "equity" guidelines are met. If that doesn't work they can introduce fines.

Sure they will.

This is a reach, even for outrage bait.

You have a very active imagination.
