Nah you’re good mate, I take your point. ‘Only’ 10-15% of problem drinkers go on to develop cirrhosis and not a hundred percent of them will go on to trash their livers. You also make a good point about heart transplants not being denied to the obese for example. Today I learnt.

Any source on your assertion of 85% of liver transplants not being due to alcohol? May it be because people with livers blown due to alcohol use would be at the bottom of any transplant list?

The problem with capitalism is that power and wealth concentrates in the hands of a few insiders, so let’s in fact concentrate all that wealth and power into one central bureaucracy to be controlled by a few insiders and back it up with full force of the state. Real smart idea.
