Explain to me how booze was outlawed in all 50 states on anything approaching a legal ballot. If it was, I'm impressed.

Apparently, you never heard of the scourge known as "Prohibition".

The first time it was done, we realized it took a Constitutional Amendment, which was voted on and passed, as was its repeal.

This time, it was done by the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration).

No no no.. I know the textbook story of Prohibition and the 19th Amendment. I know "why", I want to know *how*, cause I don't believe it.
