Why increase tax on alcohol to stop underage drinking why not simply enforce the law?
Instead of taxing the law abiding citizens, as mentioned here – enforce the tax ….. impose heavy fines on those who sell alcohols to the underaged – including supermarkets …… impose fines on parents who buy alcohol for their children and friends (I’m thinking more of those who take their kids to the pubs with them – so long as the youngster doesn’t buy the alcohol themselves at the bar – most pubs seem to turn a blind eye to the parents buying it for them ….) …… fine the kids (or their parents) when they are found drunk and disorderly or committing a crime whilst under the influence ….. NO IF’S BUTS OR MAYBE’S…..
