The majority of Gen Z isn't even old enough to get into a nightclub to begin with. Gen Z is currently 12-27. I'm bad at math, but isn't that something like only 40% of the generation that's 21+?

Ohhhh noooo not the nightclubs!
sounds like someone needs to introduce these kids to the warehouse district
If that's what it takes for them to stop pretending that anyone wants to pay that much, then great. Alcohol prices are obscene.
And that's coming from someone that absolutely hates alcohol's mere existence as a beverage type. I won't go into that here, but rest assured I'm not losing any sleep over anything that makes it more obvious it's a bad choice.
I've always said that I am ok with almost everything that makes cigarettes and/or alcohol less convenient/more expensive/less desirable.
I'm willing to admit part of it is a "stop looking what I don't like", but I REALLY hate both of these things, and will rejoice any time something "terrible" happens to those industries or the people who benefit from them.
I'm the monster that sees a smoker get lung cancer and just don't feel bad for them. You literally chose that. Sorry but you did.
