Liquor ban is strictly implemented in the province of Bataan. Many are appealing to lift this ban. What is your viewpoint about this?

Answer:

In the interest of a free market where people are allowed to express their freedom of choice in the purchase of goods and services, I believe that so long as a good is not causing crime, people should be allowed to buy it.

Alcohol is one such good and although it can lead to many social ills, it cannot be directly linked to crime.

The alcoholic industry also provides a lot of jobs for people and contributes significantly to recreational activities.

I believe that a total ban is unnecessary. If Bataan wants to limit the number of people drinking alcohol, they can implement a sort of levy that increases the price of alcohol such that drinking rates go down.

A complete ban however, is unnecessary.
