I work in local gov economic development.The economy dependent on revenue from alcohol sales. It’s convenient for the govt to ignore this issue.

This is such a great appointment. My bipolar is mostly stable since stopping drinking. No coincidence there! No medical professional ever discussed drinking with me before I stopped. Is the revenue from alcohol sales higher than the expenditure linked to alcohol problems? #sobriety #AF #bipolar
