That's a good reminder, thanks.

I lived in developing nation where the men and women, if they drank, really went over the top, but, in general, I met a lot more people who didn't drink at all, than in Australia. It was very surprising at first.

This is interesting. What do you think are the reasons there are more drinkers in developed nations? Discretionary income? Too much comfort? No purpose in life? Meaning those in developing countries work life is tied more closely to their survival (ie. Farming etc.). Seems everywhere the Jew has its hold people like to poison themselves.

Another factor is that producing alcohol requires significant effort, and consumes food in the process. When people might not have enough food to eat, they don't make booze.

"Developed Nations" with the exclusion of China and Japan are European Nations where the invention of Alcohol took root. One great theory suggests that Europeans have different gut bacteria and centuries of drinking actually keeps the European gut in check by killing microbes in th esmall intestine etc..

So there is a cultural aspect to it. Another, suggestion is that you are right vices grow when you are bored however, there’s also nothing better than having a cold one after a days work. The idea that developing nations work harder than Developed ones is a YUGE myth. IN fact they work less and have much more vices be it multiple wives or their preferred cultural vice which is weed and tobacco. Which I would argue is the worse sin than alcohol

You're spot-on with all of these.

One to add for developed nations (tied to no purpose in life): working like a dog in shit-arse job and coming home needing to "switch-off" more than what nature intended.

For developing nations too, they are still relatively traditional and homogeneous; they find comfort and support and entertainment in their community and rituals.
