Why I've heard statistics quoted that having alcohol has created many lives per year, or perhaps more correctly enhanced the conditions that caused new lives (intentionally or unintentionally) to be created.

Prohibition made a lot of people in Detroit and Chicago rich and made boats go faster, cars too.
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.
