For all of the empty rhetoric about economics and black markets, the end of Prohibition was due to a single principle:

Prohibition failed because it wasn't a prohibition. Possession was legal, doctors gave out millions of prescriptions for whiskey, low alcohol beer was legal, and law enforcement was banned from establishments that served alcohol.

Prohibition failed because it wasn't a prohibition.

LOL! Yeah, and communism failed because none of the communist countries practiced True Communism.
