Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.
I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

Yes, liver cancer has other causes besides alcohol. I had another cousin who died at age 63 from liver cancer. He may have had some wine occasionally, I'm not sure. But someone close to him suspects it was from taking massive doses of vitamins, minerals and herbs. He was a health nut and reportedly had every supplement you could think of and took them in large doses. I believe that could become toxic.
Drugs can cause liver damage: The average 75 year old takes 3 or more prescription drugs per day, and 5 or more is not uncommon.
Hepatitis C can cause liver damage.
Fatty liver disease: Excess fat in the liver can cause inflammation and inflammation is said to put one at higher risk for cancer.
Absorption of harsh chemicals at work and/or at home.
So, for some people, it could be a combination of things working together; it's not always easy to pin it down to one thing alone.

Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I digress....
Somehow, I suspect you did that at 30.....

At least you recognize it's a risk. I would just add another cautionary note: The risk tends to increase with age as our organs gradually wear down and function less efficiently. It's often so gradual that we hardly notice it's happening. Like some people start eating smaller meals and less meat because their digestion is not what it used to be. The capacity or tolerance for alcohol becomes less as we age. And the processing by our liver and kidneys slows down. Everything gradually slows down with aging. So my philosophy is simple: We need to take better care of ourselves as we get older and not try eat and drink as though we are still teenagers.
We all have to die someday; may as well live according to your lifestyle and be happy as opposed to living 5 or 6 years longer but yet being miserable the whole time. Just my two cents.

Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.
Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.
