Yikes! Playing god indeed. How quickly those in charge forget the original intentions behind their regulations: to protect the well-being of the people (protecting the right to life and liberty having been ignored from the get-go) . Gotta love those good intentions. The idea of poisoning alcohol is like if the government recruited people infected with HIV/AIDS to work as prostitutes pushing unprotected sex, probably would directly kill more people than it would deter... I suppose one can't break the law once dead though.
