Prohibition threatened the government, so it's gone, gone, gone.
The government got smart and instituted the War on Drugs as a test model for further encroachments on liberty. If you're carrying several thousand dollars in cash, the Kettenhunde can seize it and charge it with a crime. You'll never get it back.
Furthermore, the government then instituted the War on Tobacco, as a preliminary for dealing with alcohol. Soon, the government will attack alcohol with the same tools they used on tobacco.
Hell, right now, it's a thoughtcrime to drink and drive. But I suppose a statist like you just loves that sort of thing...
So you think drinking and driving, which in itself is a gross act of negligence and irresponsibility that endangers many innocent lives, is OK?
