FDR put too many band aids on everything. Even when we were going through the Depression and don't forget the Dirty 30s, my Father found Alcohol, a bucket of beer wasn't too expensive. I was 3 years old when was repealed.
The really funny thing about Prohibition is that, while it banned the production, sale, transport, and storage of alcoholic drinks, it did not outlaw their consumption. So if you went to Canada or Mexico and got yourself a crate load of liquor, if you drank them all and all the cops found were empty bottles, they couldn't do anything to you.
i hate alcohol! i think it is evil and corrupting!

Drug war 1980's = Mexican cartels

The irony is, by the time people could legally buy a glass of beer again, they simply couldn't afford it.

If an alcoholic ever abuses his family he should be strapped to a chair and forced to watch prohibition footage.
