As I’ve probably stated before, modern surveillance technology, given that we drop the concept of personal privacy, will easily allow to supervise every step the citizens make.

bruh, you'd need breathalyser's alongside door locks.Laka Strolistandiler wrote:Kubra wrote: like bucket and grape ownership? Will we have to surveille anyone who buys more than 5 bottles of orange juice?
Welol, analyzing such many info can be done by using, say, supercomputers. Wether or not one is trying to home brew something can be detected by using chemical sensors placed in homes. Or under the skin chips that supervise ones chemical statistics. Sure, this is a bit “PMT-ish”, but I’d say that such tech is right around the corner.

for one thing, we don't replace locks every 6 months.

breathalyser's, especially when exposed to the elements, have short service life's. Breathalyser's on doors would have to be frequently replaced.

You know, I've an easier solution. Just fire all the nukes and wipe humans from Earth, and no one will drink alcohol anymore.
I agree alcohol consumption can lead to lots of problems, but the "solution" you propose, this nightmarish dystopian mass surveillance, is so many orders of magnitude worse than the problem it tries to fix that it's much more like my ironical "nuke" solution than to a real one.

they don't, but it is costly to use them in the millions in conditions that make them degrade quicker.Laka Strolistandiler wrote:Kubra wrote: breathalyser's, especially when exposed to the elements, have short service life's. Breathalyser's on doors would have to be frequently replaced.
Ah, so that’s what you mean! Well, if I’m correct, breathalyzers don’t cost this much and the government will probably be able to maintain a supply.

from being outdoors and used like all the time, estimate 3-4 times, then factor in the material cost and wages of installation and regular replacement.Laka Strolistandiler wrote:Kubra wrote: they don't, but it is costly to use them in the millions in conditions that make them degrade quicker.
If we take into account that each and every household of Russia (there are 55 million of them) has to be equipped with a breathalyzer that costs 15 bucks each two times a year that would mean that we have to spend on the program roughly 1.65 billion of dollars to maintain. This is very small compared to financial losses of our country from alcohol which measure “in a couple trillions of roubles” https://www.newkaliningrad.ru/news/brie ... golya.html

Not just Italians, Germans, Irish, Blacks, pretty much every race, creed and color got a piece of the bootlegging action. It can be argued that Prohibition, not unlike the so-called war on drugs, was targeted against minority groups, particularly Blacks. Prohibiting anything that human beings find enjoyable and that can be enjoyed without undue harm to others is generally a Bad Thing even without reference to increasing the profit from flouting the prohibition.

Society is at a point where maybe instead, we put the money we get from alcohol sales into rehabilitation for addicts, and raising the taxes on alcohol. Putting money towards rehabilitation of alcohol addicts would lower the amount of addicts willing to spend self harming amounts of money on alcohol, and a tax on it would provide a incentive for non addicted drinkers to hold off on buying it.
