Question


What can you tell me about gangs in the s about prohibition?
no direct quotes please


Answer


Prohibition was the belief carried by mostly women that alcohol should be banned and illegal to consume. Banning alcohol was thought to potentially raise public moral and also was beneficial to women for their husbands wouldnt come home drunk and beat them. I cant remember too much about the gangs, aside from that they were big in politics and helped candidates get elected with their vast majority of connections. This leads to the spoils system in which an elected person would use his power to benefit those who helped him reach his current position.
