And yet the illegal alcohol market boomed and it gave massive rise to organized crime and government corruption to allow it. It doesn’t “work” in any practical sense, it just concentrates the problem and makes it even harder to control.
It completely works if you ignore all of the times it didn’t work.
It only didn't work if you demand absolute perfection, which is unreasonable. I'm going to stand by it worked.
I already addressed the unintended consequences.
Just like the “War On Drugs” worked; Drugs won!
yay drugs!
Okay, real question, if prohibition on drugs doesn't matter, why all the hubbub about states legalizing weed years back? "Prohibition doesn't work, anyway," so who cares?
I think the hubbub was because the states were legalizing something illegal at the federal level and that wasn’t a precedent that had been set yet.
The only point of interest is that the states and the federal disagree?
