Happy hour advertising
 

Happy hours encourage binge drinking. If happy hour or drink special advertising is relaxed, more establishments will be advertising them if only to keep up with the competition. Now persons who want cheap drinks can easily find out  when and where they are offered, and move from one establishment to another to get the biggest bang for their buck. And the rest of us pay for the consequences of excessive drinking. Please don't change happy hour advertising regulations.
