Guest guest Posted August 19, 2002 Report Share Posted August 19, 2002 The Volstead Act only created organized crime's biggest boom period. It didn't cure a single alcoholic or stop alcohol abuse. Arguably, it worsened things. So legislating this problem never works. Those who'd be better off without it would get it whether it's legal or not. Consider illegal drugs right now, for instance.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2002 Report Share Posted August 19, 2002 I agree 100%. I was just pissed at my husband because he drank too much the night before, and was sick all day yesterday, LOL. I used to drink alot too, but now that I am diabetic, I dont drink at all. The Stewarts wrote: The Volstead Act only created organized crime's biggest boom period.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2002 Report Share Posted August 19, 2002 I joined this list hoping for quick vegetarian recipes. I'm getting few of those. Mostly politics and chewing the fat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
