Informed choice? Or simplistic haranguing? It's easy to get into a pointless argument over such absolutist statements. Let's just hope the Surgeon General doesn't discover the human body produces an amount of its own alcohol* and that 'moderation' isn't a difficult concept.
It was very nice wine, by the way, and being adults able to use our judgement, it was a pleasure without anyone being harmed. Amazing. That's why the importer's name's been obscured.

Every bottle of alcohol has that warning label on it over here. In our state places that serve alcohol even go so far as to post the warning signs in the ladies washroom too... because you couldn't possibly be in charge of your own body without help from the state.
