A research report published in Applied Economics has found that the number of patients with violence-related injuries treated in hospital emergency rooms is related to the price of beer. (http://www.mindhacks.com/blog/2007/04/violence_linked_to_p.html)

So... the cheaper the beer... the MORE violence. So if everyone had free beer.... ANARCHY.

Whatever. Paying $8 a beer at some places in NYC makes me angry!

This is something I think we can all get behind.

There are three main theories on why alcohol and violence are linked: i) due to the drug effects on the brain; ii) because people use alcohol as an excuse for violent behaviour; iii) because people who use alcohol might be more likely to be violent, perhaps due to personality factors like sensation-seeking, impulsivity or risk-taking.

Or, the person is a born asshole.

Sorry, boys. The relationship is exactly the inverse of what was reported above:
the cheaper the beer, the more violence:
"...found that as the price of beer increased, violence-related injuries decreased."

Free beer = anarchy. Personally, I think it is a fair price to pay for free beer.

Holy shit you're right. I'm dumb. Can I change the title? Tune in next time...

$8 a beer would piss me off too. Shit, paying $5 at clubs out here pisses me off! Free beer for all sounds good, as long as Guiness is included. Everything else is like water to me at this point.

Couldn't agree more.
And I highlighted the important part.

I don't know about anyone else, but my thoughts become much more nonviolent the drunker I become.

besides, the drunker the women get, the more nekkid they get.
and lets be honest, a nice set of tits would even halt the mid-east crisis.

$5 at a club?! An Elks Club? Where is your time machine, Mr. time-traveller man? and how did you get to 1998?

PS- the second "n" in Guinness is still free.
