Alcohol abuse up, but alcoholism down
Alcohol abuse, is defined as drinking-related failure to fulfill major obligations at work, school or home, interpersonal social or legal problems and drinking in hazardous situations. Alcoholism, which declined, is characterized by compulsive drinking, preoccupation with drinking and tolerance to alcohol.
Subtle difference. Can't one abuse alcohol and still fulfill major obligations at work? Are we just not trying hard enough?
