How did the prohibition of alcohol in the 1920's effect America? Did it work?
No, under the Volstead Act, approximately 70,000 people were arrested, the Mafia empire flourished, and most importantly, alcohol use increased. Similarly today, the Cartel finds most of their profits from Marijuana(and other drugs) and conduct their business by any means necessary. The DEA estimates 1 murder ever 1/2 hour by the cartel.
