I don't agree. You can become addictive to a lot of things of you over-do it, not just alcohol. Alcohol can be a real pleasure taken with moderation and some studies show that it can have a good effect on your heart.

You know that you can replace "alcohol" in your text with "love" or "sex" and that would still applies. So should we all restraints ourself from these things because we can become addicted to it?
