Is there any objective way to assess success or failure of such an experiment? Drinking dropped around 50% when Prohibition started and never recovered its previous place. The incidence of the evil consequences of drink remains much lower today than in 1919. How much longer must these consequences remain reduced until Prohibition is objectively evaluated as successful?
