Drink young and crash is the frontpage headline in the DomPost today. Fair enough. It relates reasonably to a study which has shown road crash rates increasing for young people.
One inference is the lowering of the drinking age is to blame.
But the headline could have read,"Road crashes up since Boyracer legislation introduced". It all depends on which angle the media wants to push.

The lower price of cars is no doubt also a factor. Next the statists will want a tax on second-hand car sales.
I mean, doesn't that sort of thing stop us drinking and smoking!
It's that ole lefty logic Oswald.
Taxing undesirable behaviour eg smoking and drinking, will discourage it.
Taxing desirable behaviour eg work and saving, will encourage it.
Hi,
My sister wanted to congratulate you on such a straight blog you have...
She does not know how to type... and might waste an hour to create a decent post.
We both give you our best wishes, and hope that this straight blog remains our favourite.
Good luck,
straight blog
