	Berman Statement (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		We have collectively spent hundreds of millions of dollars in educating the public on the responsible use of adult beverages and have been on the front lines in stopping abuse and underage purchases.
		To come up with effective solutions to the underage drinking problem, now may be the time to explore new strategies or open up new dialogues with young people, some of which have been proposed by academicians and those who work directly with students who are at risk of abusive behavior.

	American Beverage Institute - SourceWatch
		The American Beverage Institute (www.abionline.org) states that its mission is to "promote responsible alcohol consumption." Actually, its primary focus is opposing any lowering of the legal blood alcohol limit for drivers, and fighting smoking bans in bars.
		In 1999, the American Beverage Institute published a study titled "Effects of 1998 California Smoking Ban on Bars, Taverns and Night Clubs." The study surveyed bar owners and managers, asking whether business increased or decreased after January 1, 1998, the date the California bar ban went into effect.
		They call MADD and others who work to reform alcohol policies "Neo-prohibitionists" to suggest that they want to infringe upon the average American's right to enjoy the alcoholic beverage of their choice, and to paint them as "Carrie Nations" to be feared.

		Less predictably, the head of the American Institute of Philanthropy says MADD spends far too little of the money it raises on services and is lowering MADD's rating to a "D." Odder still, the woman who founded the group in 1980 after a drunken driver killed her 13-year-old daughter, has split from MADD.
		Daniel Borochoff, executive director of the American Institute for Philanthropy, says nearly 80% of the charities it monitors score a C or better in its ratings.
		But the beverage institute notes that nearly all the reductions in such fatal crashes in 2004 occurred in states that don't use checkpoints.

		The American Beverage Institute is correcting this prohibitive message with a more appropriate message: Drink Responsibly.

		The spot, part of a larger effort from the American Beverage Licensees and the American Beverage Institute, is a counterattack to what alcohol retailers say are increasingly strident campaigns against drink-driving.
		"These overly conservative messages tell responsible Americans that they're wrong in going out and having a glass of beer, a glass of wine or a cocktail at dinner, or at a sports venue, and driving home," said Paul Avery, president of the Outback Steakhouse restaurant chain and the American Beverage Institute.
		The American commercial that ran nationally this week put on a brave face, making toasts to adults seen clinking glasses in restaurants and bars.

	Employment Policies Institute - SourceWatch
		The Employment Policies Institute is one of several front groups created by Berman and Co., a Washington, DC public affairs firm owned by Rick Berman, who lobbies for the restaurant, hotel, alcoholic beverage and tobacco industries.
		The Employment Policies Institute was launched in 1991, around the time of the economic recession that led to the electoral defeat of then-president George Bush.
		The EPI study was cited in TV commercials sponsored by the Republican National Committee, which continued to air even after Berman admitted that his study had actually been produced before the Clinton administration even formulated the details of its health plan.

		Another Berman front group, the Employment Policies Institute (EPI), calls itself a "non-profit research organization dedicated to studying public policy issues surrounding employment growth." In reality, EPI's mission is to oppose increases in the minimum wage so restaurants can continue to pay their workers as little as possible.
		It runs the American Beverage Institute, which was organized in 1991 with the stated mission of promoting "responsible alcohol consumption," but actually represents restaurants and retailers that sell alcohol.
		Some of its funding apparently comes from one of Berman's other organizations, the American Beverage Institute, which "contributes monthly amounts to the Guest Choice Network to assist with media expenses." The Guest Choice Network did not report paying salaries to any of its employees, who were presumably paid by other sources.

		Roadblocks are the backbone of a âPRâ-heavy traffic safety program, one that seeks to convince the public that it is illegal or immoral to drink any adult beverage and then drive.
