Prohibition stops 88,000 people from drinking themselves to death. But how many lives are lost due to the illegal alcohol trade? How many people die from drinking denatured alcohol, mouthwash and vanilla extract? Bootleg booze? Illegal distillery explosions? If you want to know what kind of black market arises when you prohibit a popular drug, you have multiple examples from recent history to look to. Such as the drug war, and the last time we tried to 'save lives' with alcohol prohibition. |
