Thank you very much for your timely and extremely well-written

Thank you very much for your timely and extremely well-written
editorial entitled “Bravo for war on tobacco – now regarding alcohol…”
I believe you hit the nail on the head when you wrote “Our
government is addicted to the income from taxing alcohol and from the political
contributions of its manufacturers.”
I hope your editorial will help us all to realize that as bad
as tobacco is for us – alcohol adversely affects, to a greater degree,
the health of the user and an untold number of innocent people. It surely is
time to go after the beverage industry with the same justification and zeal
as we do the tobacco industry.
I appreciate your in-depth and substantive discussion of this
important issue.
