Gen Zs grew up watching all kinds of messages about drinking and driving, probably saw relatives screw up their lives with DUIs. Going out to drink isn’t an attractive idea.
Gen Zs are the generation with the least acces to decent wages, and alcohol in restaurants and bars has become extremely expensive. Going out drinking costs way too much.
Weed is easily available, and far cheaper. You can easily blow $50 in a bar in one evening, while $50 can buy enough weed for a week, and you won’t be waking up hungover every morning.
It’s not just Gen Z, I’m an old guy, and I don’t like to drink when I go out. I might have a beer with dinner, but never more than one. I’d never drink more than a couple and drive home. You can get a DUI even if you aren’t feeling the effects, and I can’t deal with that. I’ll just drink at home.
