Why the Prohibition Era was a Turning Point in History
Before prohibition alcohol wasn't even a big deal, but as soon as it was banned and the people knew they couldn't have it anymore. Temptation sunk in and caused crime rates to go through the roof. Risking your health and life for a laugh became a trend, and the government tried to put an end to these mindless acts by outlawing the sale, consumption and production of alcohol.
Despite of the endless effort and money put towards the prohibition, this movement failed in South Carolina along with the rest of the nation. This moment in history should be remembered forever to ensure that America, or any other country for that matter, never makes the same mistake. After millions of dollars wasted and thousands of people dead, America took a turn for the better and ended this unforgettable time only to be forced into more problems, all because of alcohol.
