Prohibition would free the nation's productive energy
An economist argues that 1916 liquor taxes totaled about two and a quarter billion dollars, yet productivity fell as alcohol drains labor. He contends prohibition would redirect this energy to non alcoholic goods, boosting output by at least ten percent and raising national wealth by about four billion dollars, while improving health and lowering costs.
