"On track to be the biggest govt debacle since Prohibition." Thanks to alloysteel for this excellent History reminder lesson:

"After all, Prohibition was the law of the land (under the 18th Amendment), and the politics of its widespread loss of respect for the law resulted in its repeal (21st Amendment).

The 21st Amendment did not totally end Prohibition. The individual states could then vote in local option for either being “wet” or “dry”. But the power was stripped from the Federal government to enforce prohibition anywhere.

How was that for repeal and replace?

For those with a blank screen, are you using FireFox? I was getting that, too until I switched browser. Was able to put my application in, now I'm stuck "in process"....

I don't know how to break this to you honey, but this is not a "solution."
