Should we outlaw alcohol because although some may use it responsibly, that use could be a vector for someone else becoming an alcoholic and destroying their life/dying?

Everyone who thinks alcohol, or anything else, for that matter, is bad, should absolutely ban it from his own life.

The 'we' that could outlaw alcohol for others, pretending to protect them, is a collectivist invention and doesn't rightfully exist.

Alcohol is complex due to the fact that it's also a vector for someone else becoming an alcoholic and destroying other people's live/killing.

Is this a yes or a no?

If you want the government to ban everything that is potentially harmfull to people we will have to ban life itself.

But we are already on that path, aren't we?

Statist matriarchy.

We should ban nothing, but I'm sure people killed by drunk drivers and beaten by drunk spouses would disagree with me. I also think that if we hadn't of banned most of what people call hard drugs, we wouldn't have as many issues with alcohol deaths.
