Boomers are the biggest boozers

Boomers are the biggest boozers :

"In only 10 years, risky and highly risky drinking levels among baby boomers approaching retirement have soared, overtaking the level of abuse among young people."

Over drinking, excess drinking, alcoholism, irresponsible drinking are usually handed down from generation to generation. Whereas now, today's children, are likely to be the progeny of drug abusers, the baby boomers were brought up by heavy drinkers. The 6 o' clock swill. The men down the pub. The generation that went to war and came home and blotted it out with alcohol. Which is why baby boomers are all control freaks and like the authoritarian , cut and dried approach even though they pretend to be democratic. I can say I am amazed how much people are knocking back and how much people are using the old ploy of organising something so you have someone there to be drinking with. The amount of drinking is noticeably higher in my experience but the nastiness isn't there. They will damage themselves all these die hard anti smokers. The thing which has astounded me the most lately is how they guzzle the first drink. Very après WW2
