    Except it doesn’t, like with their smoking example.

    Or, if you’d like another… there are age requirements for buying alcohol. Based on your comments, there must be a massive thriving black market for selling moonshine to kids, yet I’ve seen zero evidence of such a thing.

      I have evidence in form of drinking classmates. Moderately so in my school because it was cultured, but classmates told it was much worse in their previous schools. I guess it largely comes from the families.

        An anecdote is not evidence. Do you have evidence?

        My anecdote is that I’ve never even heard of children buying moonshine once.
