but TODAY's morals are such that abuse of alcohol is rarely reported to the authorities. Alcohol itself doesn't report being abused either.
We know that alcohol abuse is largely under-reported, and the authorities will only accept certain types of alcohol abuse in their reports.
Justice seems to have like flaws: in court, alcohol is rarely granted the status of "defendant", and more rare still are cases where alcohol is granted compensation for having been treated as it is.
In twenty, fifty, a hundred years, maybe, politics and courts may change, all of society may have changed.
Alcohol abuse may then be treated the way we treat slavery today. |
