I'm struggling enough with my weight. Give me a free ice cream culture and I'll be 150 kilos in no time! But seriously, I think this is a good idea as long as there are healthy alternatives.

Agreed, it wasn't so much a real suggestion - health issues are a concern with too much of anything.
I do wonder if there's an extra insurance companies would have to pay if the insurers were aware that alcohol was provided for free on their premises. I tried to have an alcohol at an event and had to get extra insurance, provide security, had hard limits on amounts, and a strict 1 hour time limit.
The moment some SV-tech hipster beer fan gets killed driving home, there's going to be a big public about face. Or maybe not, we seem to be able to sustain a female-hostile culture in the face of plenty of bad events continually cropping up. Maybe alcohol related deaths would be ignored too... ?
