And of course the labels won't show any of the benefits from alcohol, only the negatives.

But i do hope to see a few of the following warnings;
WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may make you think you are whispering when you are not.
WARNING: The consumption of alcohol is a major factor in dancing like a giraffe in heat.
WARNING: The consumption of alcohol is the leading cause of inexplicable rug burns on the forehead, knees, and lower back.
WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may lead you to think people are laughing WITH you.
WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may cause pregnancy.

Woot!
 
on the up side - beers in the USA and UK from memory have similar subtle warnings on the labels. And it doesnt get in the way of the artwork, etc. We've all seen how cool the US craft beer bottles are. Just looking at the side of the Rogue bottle I have here: "GOVERNMENT WARNING: (1) ACCORDING TO SURGEO GENERAL, WOMEN SHOULD NOT DRINK ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES DURING PREGNANCY BECAUSE OF THE RISK OF BIRTH DEFECTS (2) CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES IMPAIRS YOUR ABILITY TO DRIVE A CAR OR OPERATE MACHINERY, AND MAY CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS."
