"Since Congress has power to increase war efficiency by prohibiting the liquor traffic, no reason appears why it should be denied the power to make its prohibition effective".
--Mr. Justice NRANDEIS delivered the opinion of the Court.A nice find, tpaine, but one that nevertheless supports my contention that Congress did not need the 18th amendment to prohibit alcohol.
False, since Prohibition did nothing to "increase war efficiency."

those unrefuted findings I.e., once Congress declares something to be a "fact," the burden is on anyone who disagrees to disprove it. What a bootlicking philosophy.

You're perfectly free to go into court and spew ill-informed and unsupported opinions if ya want. I won't mind at all.
