That's not the issue, IMO. The issue is that when you host a party, you cover the expenses. I don't host a party at McDonald's for my kid and expect the guests to pay for their own food. I didn't bill people for their food and drink at my wedding, either.
If you're worried about people getting drunk, here's an idea -- don't host a party where booze is included. Or, as I said, have a designated driver. If the issue is money and you can't afford to buy the rounds, then have a different kind of party.
