i watched a recent news piece on Russia's alcohol problems hospital beds full of mainly men but women on the increase

the average life  for men is 62. they talked about vodka being cheap and how increasing the cost would just drive people to buy the home distilled stuff, we just had a tax on cigarettes here in Australia and  300k gave up based on the increased tax, but we don't have Russia's history of black market and there social traditions the other thing  i noticed was parts of Russia  looked like modern western Europe and parts that looked like something out of depression era US so it is real hard to think of solutions when confronted with the disparities and shear size of the Country
