Developed countries don't all restrict times that you can purchase liquor but generally have tougher rules on who can buy, with many asking to see ID with a purchase if the buyer looks young. Some simply don't care.
It is perhaps not surprising which countries have the most alcoholics.
Hungary
21.2%
Russia
20.9%
Belarus
18.8%
Latvia
15.5%
United States
13.9%
South Korea
13.9%

I doubt gambling will raise the education and wealth of ordinary Thais. The foreigners will take most of the wealth and the Thai government will steal the rest.
False claims, lies, are easily spread and I worry AI will make them harder to distinguish in the future. Imagine a video of Biden admitting he killed his son with a gunshot to the head.
The states have become more emboldened to defy the constitution
A proposed Alabama law would force every school to display the Ten Commandments
An Idaho bill would force public schools to read from the King James Bible every day

Why do they feel they can ignore the constitution? Someone must have given them a lead.
Let's hope the Satanist Church (blessed be thou Satan) requests equal rights.
A Golden Age in Arts and Culture? So no more great Greek tragedies by Sophocles or comedies by Aristophanes because the guys all wore skirts? Ban showings of the movies 300 and Troy? Censor “Some Like it Hot”, “Mrs. Doubtfire” and “Tootsie” ?
The guy is so weird.
Hardly a traditional part of Thai culture. It implies that for the thousand years prior to 1972, alcohol was perfectly acceptable all day.
Still, you have to query people who cannot go 24 hours without a drink.
What happened to freedom of speech and inalienable rights? If shops don't want to serve a particular group surely, they have the right to deny service?
Panic can result from doing something we wouldn't normally do. Seems to happen to people in a foreign country. There was that American woman Anne Sacoolas in the UK who killed a motorcyclist because she forgot the Brits drive on the left, who fled and never really faced justice. Happens everywhere. Doesn't mean it is a good idea.
