Alcohol is Killing 43% of Russian Men
In startling new reports, it’s revealed that over 43% of Russian men are prone to alcohol-related deaths.The life expectancy for Russian men is already at only 59 years of age. Some reports indicate this number may drop below 58.
One of the biggest contributing factors is the choice of drink of many Russian men, various concoctions of alcohol. Many of these concoctions are reported to include alcohol based liquids, not even meant for human consumption, such as perfumes, cleansers, aftershave and cologne.
Heavy drinking of such liquids, especially those with harsh alcoholic content, can quickly lead to things such as heart disease, alcohol poisoning, deadly accidents, liver failure/disease and so on.

Actually, it will only get worse. Trust me, coming from someone who has actually been through the college system, I know that drinking only gets worse once you start making it illegal. The whole “its something that I cant do, so I want to do it more” kind of mentality. Something I am sure you have never known.

Actually, Damien, I think things through and consider them carefully. That’s something you appear to be unfamiliar with. I know it’s hard being a teen and full of hormones, but honestly you need to keep your nose in the books or the sports field and get serious about life! We can’t all spend our days lying around, playing video gamer. As for this issue, drinking is serious and can cause genuine harm to young people. A realistic drinking age of 25, after most children are out of college (but who knows these days with the liberal universities extended graduate time so these bums can stay in school until they’re 40 and grad with a bunch of useless PhD and Masters, what nonsense! Get a job on a factory floor you lazy bums, get real with your country. No wonder America can’t get our economy going with these lazy freaks always wanting that next handout.)

“Actually, Damien, I think things through and consider them carefully.”
Riiiiiight. Of course you do. That’s why everything you say is ill-informed and completely wrong!
“That’s something you appear to be unfamiliar with. I know it’s hard being a teen and full of hormones, but honestly you need to keep your nose in the books or the sports field and get serious about life! We can’t all spend our days lying around, playing video gamer.”
I read that as ‘you’re young and thus stupid’. Nice ad hominem.
“As for this issue, drinking is serious and can cause genuine harm to young people.”
It causes genuine harm to ANYONE that drinks.
“A realistic drinking age of 25, after most children are out of college (but who knows these days with the liberal universities extended graduate time so these bums can stay in school until they’re 40 and grad with a bunch of useless PhD and Masters, what nonsense!

You go from talking about raising the age of drinking to complaining about college graduation ages, something that neither government party has any real impact over, and completely failing to get that people who ARE in college more than likely HAVE jobs.

Do you know how the world works? Whatever statistics you have or made up wouldn’t work at all. I can tell that the logic behind the decline would literally to just cut out the people who do drink who are up to that age. The fact is, people want to do things that others tell them not to do. The more taboo something is, the more likely it’s going to get done. When you tell people you have to be in their mid twenties to drink beer, they’re going to tell you ‘fuck off’ and drink it anyway.

Billings, you pulled shit from your ass.
As for being legal, I’m able to drink, and I can tell you that the bullshit logic you’re using is, well, BULLSHIT. It’s like me saying ‘we can cut alcohol induced accidents to 0% if we banned alcohol!’ And you know what? Technically, that statement holds some truth. You know why? Because any incidents involving alcohol when someone’s underage isn’t filed the same as someone who IS legally able to drink alcohol. That DOESN’T mean, however, that raising the alcohol drinking age will LEGITIMATELY lower the number of drunk driving accidents and such out there. All it means is that they’ll be called something else.
