on Sunday, April 24, 2011

The average person in Ireland, Hungary, Moldova, and Luxembourg drink over 1.5 bottles of liquor per month(about 30 beers). That's per capita -- per man, woman, child, infant, and technically-alive-vegetable-in-a-hospital.

With about 20% of the population under 14 years old in these countries, the average person drinks about two bottles of the hard stuff per month. Life expectancy for these countries is on par with other developed nations.
