That's a 30% drop right there. Sounds like prohibition was pretty successful.
Do you have a source on that so I can use it in future debates?
Uh, no, it wasn't. In exchange for that 30% decrease, you enabled organized crime, thousands of people were poisoned when moonshiners used industrial alcohol to make products, you put hundreds of thousands of people out of jobs by dismantling the fifth largest industry in the US, and cost the government billions in revenue.
