"Over 90% of criminal system deals alcohol related problems,"

Jule- your statistic- if true- all has one thing in common: NONE of those 90% criminals were "TURNED" that way by alcohol, as the Washington Post/Alaska Dispatch(same thing) would have you think.

"...yet the taxes from alcohol don't begin to cover the costs,"

Except that's not what the taxes on alcohol are for.....

"So the tax payers end up supporting the alcohol industry."

Not at all true. What the "industry" charges for alcohol is in no way subsidized by our tax money- one has nothing to do with the other.
