When people really want to do something, they will find a way around the law. America found that out in a spectacular way during Prohibition in the 1920s, so much that we rescinded the 18th Amendment by passing the 21st Amendment. Alcohol consumption is still regulated, more so in some places than others, but there are plenty of legal loopholes. If you restrict liquor sales to restaurants, suddenly all bars become restaurants. If you can only make wine at home for personal consumption, there will be plenty of folks willing to sell you the instructions, the tools, and the “materials” used to make it. When the only way you can get booze is by prescription, doctors will write them freely for friends and important people. You get the idea. Read about six of these clever loopholes people have exploited in their quest to wet their whistles at Cracked.
