prohibition was successful in reducing the consumption of alcohol and it was not until which decade?
1920 to 1933
in mid-1995, the us government tried to reduce the supply of methamphetamine precursors to disrupt the market of this drug. according to a 2009 study, this effort was successful, but its effects were largely temporary.









































during alcohol prohibition, the period from 1920 to 1933, alcohol use initially fell but began to increase as early as 1922. it has been extrapolated that even if prohibition had not been repealed in 1933, alcohol consumption would have quickly surpassed pre-prohibition levels. one argument against the war on drugs is that it uses similar measures as prohibition and is no more effective.
