    @GoongalaGoongala Heroin and cocaine are tremendously more profitable than cheap booze. Would you rather smuggle 100 pounds of rum or 100 pounds of cocaine or heroin? See, modern prohibition could succeed. Allow weak wines, weak beers, and expensive liquors, and outlaw everything else. Say it's wrong if that's what you believe. But don't say it isn't possible. Law enforcement is so much more powerful today than ever before in all of human history.

    Song at 15:00 is East St. Louis Toodle-Oo.
    Prohibition could succeed today because law enforcement is so much stronger.
    Homeland securitity can find a suitcase bomb, so a barrell of rum is no challenge, and a barrell of cocaine or heroin is so much more profitable. Just don't outlaw all alcohol. Beer, wine, and expensive liquors okay. Cheap liquor? Tax it prohibitively. The whole story above is wrong.
    Say you're cheap liquor okay, don't say it can't be done.
