WI ON TAP FOR BINGE DRINKING

WI ON TAP FOR BINGE DRINKING

People in Wisconsin drink too much, and it is costing the state an awful lot of money.

A new study from the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute says Wisconsin’s problem with binge drinking has a four billion-dollar a year price tag. That includes healthcare costs, criminal justice costs, and lost costs for people who are too drunk or hungover to work. The study says anyone who drinks more than five drinks in one sitting is considered a binge drinker.
