>>>Abstinence as a program is similar to some other programs which have failed exactly because they expected people to do something they don't like, out of their free will. Take the introduction of metric system in the US - it never happened. The people here are used to the imperial system, no matter how illogical and complicated it may be, and they stick with it. Abstinence from imperial units didn't work - because people weren't doing it.
