Cancer Doctors Cite Risks of Drinking Alcohol

Correct.

"Schedule 1 (I) drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined by the federal government as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. Schedule 1 (I) drugs are the most dangerous drugs of all the drug schedules with potentially severe psychological or physical dependence."

Which part do you disagree with?

You said you don’t want to prohibit alcohol, but class it schedule 1. That’s a prohibition.

Ah, but reading more carefully you’d prefer to remove everything from the schedule. Now I see it’s not inconsistent. Took me a few reads to get there.

Yeah, I could have worded that better.

Ethanol has several accepted medical uses.

I am not arguing against the molecule, just liquor.
