ask not what your country can do for you

But ask, "What can you do for your country"? I'll tell you what - shotgun a beer [via NYT]:

A 2004 study by Frank Sloan and Jan Ostermann at Duke University found that heavy drinkers contribute slightly more to Social Security, through their higher average lifetime earnings, than nondrinkers do. What’s more, since alcohol abusers tend to die sooner than moderate or nondrinkers, they draw less money, over time, from the Social Security trust fund.

So, get off your ass and get out there! Pitch the fuck in!
