Prohibition" was a good thing or a bad thing   stance: it was a good thing:
I believe that it was a "learning experience" for our country. Without prohibition, who knows what would be happening now. I think that by having the prohibition law THEN, we we're able to see that it didn't work and we can decide better on circumstances like that in the future. While it wasn't a strictly "good thing", I do not believe it was a bad thing for our country to undergo.
