Coupons on Alcoholic Beverages
 

I oppose the recommendation to allow coupons on alcoholic beverages. Research has repeatedly shown that one of the only things that decreased overall alcohol consumption is price increase. To allow citizens to use coupons would go against everything the research suggests to reduce drinking, especially among college students who regularly consume at a high-risk level and drink to get drunk.
