Those that ignore history are doomed to repeat it, has #badenoch never heard of the #volsteadact & it’s consequences, have these people never even watched #theuntouchables or any other gangster epic that is part of our culture?

#OnThisDay 1920:
The #VolsteadAct went into effect, thus ushering in the era of #Prohibition. Prohibitionists sought to end the sale and consumption of alcohol, and thus cure society's ills, such as: alcoholism, domestic violence, and corruption (And also to weaken their political opposition.)

The "Great Experiment" may have been repealed in 1933, but it failed over a decade earlier. By 1921, doctors, bankers, and judges had normalized illegal drinking as a routine convenience, revealing the law's fatal hypocrisy. #History #USHistory #TheRoaringTwenties #Prohibition #VolsteadAct
