Not So Good Amendment

"1920's Prohibition"
http://www.1920-30.com/prohibition/
The idea of prohibiting any item is to have its consumption reduced. As the 18th Amendment went into action the government believed the families would be protected by the alcohol abuse being eliminated with the new law. With the alcohol sale put to an end, it was the nascent of completely new alcohol sales. Alcohol was famously sold at "speakeasies" and underground alcohol manufacturers. As the years went by, the more speakeasies would come about. Police would shut down one, and two other venues would appear. It also enhanced smuggling with Canada and the creation of moonshine, in home alcohol making. The prohibition also created new alliances which are currently the mafia. They would be the ones to smuggle the alcohol and sell it to the speakeasies and even run it, indicating the beginning of the future mob/mafia. To some extent the prohibition was affecting the country because of the unprofessional alcohol makers. Without any expertise in the field of the making, many received alcohol poisoning. The alcohol made people want to party and celebrate, with the excitement of breaking the law drinking alcohol. The 1920's era was the indication of the beginning of a new time for the United States, the era of Modernism.
