Are we making shite up now?

France has more alcoholics per capita. Same with Ireland.

Oh, of course you make shite up. Didn’t realize this was an sfp zinger.

If you want to move where alcoholism isn’t a problem you need to go to like Saudi Arabia or other Muslim countries.

You guys are killin me. Have you ever been to Russia? Most of the issues you relate are either internet gossip or "official govt data" same place that gives us info on job creation in the US, lack of inflation, dei, immigration etc.

Alcohol is a problem in Russia..bahaha, have you ever ventured outside your bubble and walked the inner cities of the US.

You cant speak out against the govt. bahahaha go ahead speak out against the US govt, immigration, dei, mutilation of children, go ahead I dare you.

Its poor......ya ever seen the 9th ward, Liberty city, south side chicago, brooklyn, all of oakland and most of LA?

Russians dont age well.....your ever seen pictures of events in the US, bunch of fat fat pigs whose idea of exercise is not using the drive through.

Your vision of America is one from long ago folks, there are plenty of nice places in Russia compared to the US these days.

Why Russian Men Don’t Live as Long

quote:
Russia’s life expectancy is exceptionally low compared with that in other developed countries. While American men have a 1-in-11 chance of dying before their 55th birthday, in Russia the odds are 1 in 4.

The main reason, two large studies suggest, is vodka.

quote:
“The main reason for the extraordinary difference in premature death between Western and Eastern Europe is alcohol,” said an author of the studies, Richard Peto, a professor of epidemiology at the University of Oxford. “Russians are drinking spirits dangerously.”

Typically, Russian men drink their vodka neat. They also tend to drink until they are drunk, and then continue drinking.

Now, I will say that apparently there has been a shift back due to anti-alcoholism policies that an authoritarian government can create, but I haven't looked at the data in years.

It's all alchol, still
