we agree on so much-- the inevitability of the collapse, the security job xanadu, the role of women in society. this continuing rumpleminze love makes me question it all.
Not surprising, and I have seen something like it before. One factor is that intelligence and income are positively correlated, and hence the intelligent can buy not only more but better booze than the less intelligent. Hell, Cappy, that's why you drink that disgusting mint stuff - it is actually a better and more interesting drink than beer. Getting drunk on beer is just plain disgusting.
Back when I was doing a lot of work - mental work - typically at the end of work I would have three or four beers, then three or four Scotch. Then I'd head off for dinner (restaurant in those days) and begin with a martini or two, then a bottle of wine with dinner, then a couple of cognacs at the end. Happiness it was!

Unless those kids are drinking from early childhood, I think you might be getting your causes and effects mixed up.

You should start going to Mensa gatherings, there's usually some good booze there.
