This has been an issue for the last several hundred years not just the last hundred. It got so bad they even banned alcohol for a while

Bars and taverns are basically the only places men can be honest with each other, and even then under a veil of In vino veritas.

Of course, women saw that drunken camaraderie and banned it the moment they got the vote.

Absolutely. Women's suffrage (19th Amendment) came out of the temperance movement (18th Amendment), the latter led by "little old ladies in tennis shoes" and that utter cunt Carrie Nation. If only we could repeal the 19th Amendment like we did the 18th.

Fucking busybody hens will never rest until all Western men are feminized. Feminists need the sex enemy to provide them a reason to be. This is why they detest trannies--they don't want any of their team going over to the other side.

Well yeah, but the times of Prohibition is when it kicked into overdrive in American culture, as the banning of it created a whole new culture of being cool, edgy, and generally just marketing it to the high heavens.

Honestly, the level of response to Prohibition did more to convince me of its point than any of the arguments against it. The execution was horrendously retarded, but the sheer depths people went to in response proved there certainly was a problem.

The rampant alcoholism that garnered sympathy for the 18th Amendment was the result of brutal urban living/working conditions brought about by rapid industrialization. People still down on the farm drank their plum wine and corn squeezin's as always with no ill social effects. Quite the contrary.

What would have happened without Prohibition? In the short-term, continued widespread urban wife-beating/drinking away the week's pay. In the long-term, probably a lower level of public drunkenness as workers' conditions improved.
