Finland does a lot right, but this I can’t get my head around
Surely the people are ordering are going to be those bulk purchasing for over consumption or alcoholics?
If by alcoholics you mean normal Finns, yes.
If by overconsumtion you mean
"Well I want to drink s lot on Saturday, so I better drink a lot on Friday too as a shield. And if I'm going to drink on Friday, then I might was well relax with some booze on little Friday (Thursday)", then also yes.
Is this something weird tho? I have been able to get alcohol delivered at home since forever where I live. Either by the delivery service of grocery stores (which wouldn't be same-day delivery but still), and ever since they added grocery store type vendors on uber eats, which has been so a while now
Keeps them off the road and out of society I guess, but surely people are going to drink themselves to death.
They're going to do that anyway, might as well make the road safer and address the alcoholism issue at the same time with appropriate healthcare no ?
