Alcohol as a drug upswing risk from moderates to addicts
A crime commission consultant argues that alcohol is a drug and that shutting off alcohol could push moderate drinkers toward potent drugs. Richard A. Blum of Stanford’s Institute for the Study of Human Problems said Americans won’t stop drinking and warned about substitutions if prohibition-like controls return. The panel favors detox centers and treating drunkenness as a public health issue rather than a crime.
