Basically this is similar to a methadone clinic where all of the problem drinkers are given one drink an hour in order to keep them stable. Very interesting way of treating alcoholism.

Yea it would be for most people but for these folks it keeps them stable they mention they don't even get a buzz it just stabilizes them.

A bleak and depressing watch, but a good one. Thanks for sharing.

I don't see this kind of thing flying in much of the US but I see the logic behind it considering its cheaper than just cutting them loose out on the streets. Alcohol is a horrible drug.

Alcohol is not a horrible drug, if you are mentally stable, have sober days or longer sober periods, and know how to eat and sober up.
Some folks get so addicted they cannot eat food or drink water. Both help sobering up and prolonging sobriety.
I can go days withou a drink. Couldn't with weed and still cannot with nicotine.
