Alcoholic drinks should be banned

Alcoholic drinks is a drink that contains ethyl alcohol which is commonly referred to as ethanol. I would like to go for alcoholic drinks should be banned. I have eight points to support my decision and the most three strongest points are alcoholics cause car accidents, lead to sexual intercourse and waste of money.

One important point is that consuming alcoholic drinks are a waste of money. People waste money on alcoholics and doesn't have enough money to pay other expenses, one example is that parents used the money on buying alcoholics and does not have enough money to pay their children's school fee. Once a Chinese professor in a Beijing university says "NO ALCOHOLICS, NO CIGARRET, LOT OF MONEY CAN BE SAVED WITHIN THREE YEARS TIME!". Stop the consumption of alcoholics and help people save a lot of money.

Equally important point is that overconsumption of alcoholics may lead to sexual intercourse. When people over consumed alcoholics, their head start functioning improperly and their body move without the command of the brain, and that result in high risk of getting sexual intercourse with someone else and that might also lead to HIV. 'Weinhardt et al. found that adults with severe mental illness who engaged in high-risk sexual behavior in the past 3 months were more likely to have a current alcohol use disorder than were participants who did not engage in such risk behavior.' ( http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2426779/ )¬. Over consumed alcoholics can be a high risk of getting sexual intercourse and that may lead to STDs such as HIV and AIDs.

Most important point is that consuming alcoholics can cause car accidents. Alcohol is a depressant. After consumption, alcohol causes the body's systems to slow down. Balance, judgment, and coordination are also negatively affected. Therefore when people drinks alcoholics, they can't control what they are doing and with the dizzy head, they can't judge direction properly, also they can't handle the car properly and finally cause car accidents. Driving while under the influence of alcohol has been shown to be the cause of around half of all the deaths and serious injuries in road crashes. 'Traffic accidents are still a leading cause of alcohol-related deaths among young men aged 16 to 24. In 2010, nearly 10,000 reported road casualties happened when a driver was over the legal alcohol limit representing 5% of all road casualties.' ( https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/check-the-facts/effects-on-your-safety/alcohol-related-accidents ). driving under the influence of the alcoholics may cause injuries and eventually death.

Alcoholics cause death, disease and waste of money. Therefore I think alcoholic drinks should be banned due to the high risk to death.
