Do Alcohol Regulations Work?

Maybe not. Here is an interesting letter that was in the WSJ on 1-13-2010, page A22.
"...more government regulation either fails to achieve the intended result or actually achieves the opposite result. We find that people living in states with greater controls on liquor sales consume alcohol (on a per-capita basis) at the same rate as do people living in states with lesser controls."
