After the repeal of Prohibition the rate of alcoholism increased to 1000%.

Sounds like teetotaler urban legend to me - have any evidence?

I'm not really that interested; do your own research.

But you were interested enough to post the claim?

You're in luck - I've already done the research: No study finds a drop of more than 40% in drinking during Prohibition (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_during_and_after_prohibition).

Look, you don't need to justify your getting high to me.

I don't get high - but I'll keep that in mind.

Get some help

What is it you think I need help with?
