Dear God.

Before some of you go spouting off I would encourage you to actually read the 18th amendment

After one year from the ratification of this article the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors within, the importation thereof into, or the exportation thereof from the United States and all territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof for beverage purposes is hereby prohibited.
I bolded it AND put it in red. It did not ban the use of alcohol for other purposes

Also prhobition was a done deal with or w/o SO because it comes out of the insanity that is 19th century American protastentism

Which....wait for it....is the exact religion Rockefeller was brought up in.

Let's also forget the fact that by the time prhobition passed SOs monopoly had been smashed

Also, what would be eaiser for Rockfeller...invest in alcohol as fuel....or throw his weight behind religous fundamentilsts (which he did only because he was one) and let that sweet train ride.

There is no logic in the arguement
