Suck: Daily You know, Americans are a pretty kooky lot around alcohol. America has the highest percentage of abstainers of any western country. There are microscopic numbers of people who abstain in France or Italy. But close to 40 percent of Americans don’t drink alcohol at all. And they tend to accumulate in the Protestant…
