Beer is a big thing in America. At football games, basketball games, watching tv, playing pool, all these are done with a beer in hand.
After a long week, what drink helps you relax? Beer of course.
Beer is a god to some. It taste really weird, at least the cheap kind does. It comforts some, makes people forget about the problems they face. Than the effect goes away, and than what comes after that? People make so many mistakes, most you don't realize til its to late. Girls get pregnant, people drink and drive, people hurt themselves, all for their love of beer.
Is it impossible to drink responsibly? Uh, no not really. Can you drink a few instead of too many? Can you resist just having one more beer? Can you resist going to one more party where you know you'll get stinking wasted? Is it really fun, or is that what your friends tell you, after laughing at you for being stupid while under the influence? Make your decision, but accept your consequences. Self control is everything, if you don't have it, don't pick up the beer. Make smarter choices, so it gives you a better future.
