In addition to what BOR said, Ive noticed that in those countries without such restrictive drinking laws, you dont see the same drinking problems you do in the States. It's generally unacceptable to be drunk in public, people dont binge drink, and while people drink more often (a glass of wine with lunch, dinner), no one does it abusively or to excess like they do in the States.
It seems to me that the drinking laws are nothing more than political wrangling that do more harm in the long run than help.
