The problem with that solution, which I agree is better, is that helping poor people not be poor is unpopular with the people who have the means to provide that help.

Alcohol can be a symptom, but having more money doesn't make you necessarily drink less.
So I think Alcohol is a problem on its own, and it also causes a lot of families to stay stuck on low paying jobs.
Before controlling alcohol (which is largely a symptom of the real problem, imo) what about evidence and strategies for income inequality control as crime control? https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2018/06/07/the-star...
