A big issue in the Irish media at the moment is whether older people in rural areas should receive assistance in transporting back and forth from their local pub now that drink-driving laws are being enforced more stringently. Probably seems strange to many people but it generates strong emotions from all sides of the debate and there are interesting policy questions around alcohol, social capital, public finance etc,
Becker and Posner have a good discussion of drink-driving on their blog.
