> I'd be far more concerned with the safety and public-health issues of cheap, unregulated access to high-proof alcohol.

This isn't grounded in reality.

Alcohol itself is already dangerous, yet we've managed to figure out how to build cultural elements that mitigate the risks a lot.

You can already buy huge amounts of high-proof alcohol for cheap after you're 21, and most underage kids know someone who could get it for them anyway.

And it's already legal to brew your own alcohol - it's fairly easy to get up to 20% ABV with wine.

And I don't know where you got "unregulated" from. I certainly didn't mention anything about that. Alcohol is already regulated quite heavily - you can't give to a minor or sell without a license, homebrew or not - and legalizing distillation wouldn't change that.

You need to do some research, because you're clearly not familiar with the legal and social environments of the US, at least.
