Everything is going exactly as planned. Soon most bars will be forced to close. If only the 1920's prohibitionists could have been as smart. They didn't need to outlaw booze in bars, all they needed to do was outlaw smoking.

No, no way will they ever ban alcohol, what would old Teddy do without his booze! Of course, he'd say his drinking isn't hurting anyone, like our smoking is.

Of course, maybe if he hadn't been drinking all those years ago, he wouldn't have gone off the bridge, but he didn't get hurt, so it's OK!

I was wondering the same thing, Isn't this just like prohibition?
