Drink socially and benefit?

Monster's Blog yielded this gem, which was e-mailed to me as I am on their list:
According to a Yahoo! News article citing a recent study published in the Journal of Labor Research, "drinkers earn 10 to 14 percent more than teetotalers, and...men who drink socially bring home an additional 7 percent in pay.
Sorry, Monster: it's not the drink that does it. It's the socialization. I like a good beer as much as the next guy, but if you are able to socialize in the workplace without the benefit of alcohol, you will reap the same benefit.

I think to really make that reponse true, that last sentence has to be changed to "...socialize in the somewhere people congregate other than the workplace without the benefit of alcohol, you will reap the same benefit."
