God darned, a reduced alcohol consumption is not a bad thing (population and healthcare spending-wise), but if they're trading booze for dude weed lmao then zoomers deserve to brainrot
No, booze is good it facilitates normie social interaction and fertility. Weed makes u a depressed loser and everything else messes up some important endocrine process making you unable to experience happiness, erections, concentrate, etc.

As someone who has done every drug too many times, psychedelics like LSD are really safe, the whole "you'll go crazy" thing is mostly scare-tactic BS IMO. Mostly already crazy people being crazy. LSD was one of the most fun and peaceful things I ever had in drug form
the main problem is a) most of the other popular psychedelics like mushrooms and DMT can easily give you bad trips even in safe spaces...while LSD is a warm friendly experience near every time...but they get lumped together as one class of drug and b) many times on the street things sold as "LSD" is actually much scarier fake designer psychedelic drugs like 2C

Of course, I mean as in it's better than xanax or nitrous that I mentioned. Obviously it's still bad for you, especially if you're a child and are still growing
Nitrous is only bad for you if you take so much over such a long period you manage to deplete your B12 which you have to be r-slurred to do. The real reason not to do is that it barely lasts and pails in comparison to the Nitrous you get during a colonoscopy which puts you on a spirit quest until the cruel harpy nurses wrench it from your hands.
tons of genz are 100% smoking tons of weed in Canada in high school, weed is absolutely everywhere here since it's been legal. And before it was legal but now normies do it en masse.
Not all of them being of legal drinking age is part of it, but the other obvious component is that this metric is purely about total money spent. Young people are always going to spend less on alcohol than older people because young people are always going to be poorer than older people.
!boozers, when I was young, I drank whatever was cheapest. I'd get a handle of truly terrible whiskey for ~$8 and go to town on that bad boy. As I got older and richer, I started drinking better liquor. The rest of !genx did the same. !millenials too, presumably. So even though we all drink less than we did back in college, we spend a Heck of a lot more on it. And in a decade or two, the same thing will happen with !zoomers.
Nope, I'm still comparison shopping for whichever beer gets me the most alcohol per dollar. My grocery store recently started carrying 24oz Genesee Ice's for $1.13, so that's my current go to.
Of course. Drinking is a social activity, and alcohol helps people break out of their shell a bit. Getting a little stoned now and then to listen to music or watch a movie is fine either alone or with a couple of friends, but getting high with strangers fricking sucks.
Even if 60% can't drink, it looks like a big drop off. If every one in genZ could legally drink, assuming they drink in similar amounts to their older half, it'd be about $7.5B.
Typically consumption goes up over time, and also don't forget that 10% of drinkers account for 90% of sales. Betcha bucks that the exponent hasn't hit once the Zalcoholics find a groove.
