Wait, you want whisky to be banned, Grim?

At the time, it was a sensible option to ban hard liquor and stick to beer and wine. Alcoholism was arguably worse before prohibition than it was after, but there had to be compromises to it.

I have no problem either with dry counties if everyone there wants to be sober but shouldn't be everywhere

but is it everyone? surely someone who moves there wouldnt have a say i nthe matter, and it only needs a 51% vote. im not saying thats fair or not, but its something to think about on all issues i suppose

Ah, just for a historical stake. Nowadays, I think people are much more aware of the dangers of alcohol. If you're an adult, it's your choice. Keep givin' drunk drivers those 10 grand tickets though for riskin' other folks lives

 

[Comrade Khan]

im not really sure what my point is tho

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

It should also be noted that the 18th Amendment only banned the sale, manufacturing, and transportation of liquor. It never banned the *consumption* of liquor. Which is where a fuck ton of the problems came from.
