18th Amendment Pros And Cons

1.) The red-scare caused fear among the people of communists, so the industrialists would enjoy and promote the public’s red-scare because they used it as a way to stop the up-and-coming unions from existing if possible.

2.) The KKK organization of 1920 is different from the organization of the 19th century in the sense that they expanded the variety of people to influence and corruption was common among organization which ultimately led to their demise. Also they tried appeal to the people’s sense of adventure.

3.) The prospects of the success of the 18th Amendment seem dim because the people who were for prohibition underestimated how much the public liked to drink and how much they disliked the federal government telling them what to

do in their private life. Also because of how difficult it would be for federal authorities to enforce the law of not being able to sell alcohol.

4.) Movies and radio created a uniform American culture by helping to overcome the ethnic differences in America by bringing together different ethnic because they all had something in common like the movies and radio.

5.) Three signs of economic trouble in the second half of the 1920s are banks failing, the over speculation of real estate, and regular people were “buying stock on margin.”
