Nope.

It didn't reduce alcohol consumption by a lot and it contributed massively to the rise of organized crime. It wasn't good economically either since the tax revenue declined during that time.

I believe alcohol can have a pretty negative effect on society but prohibition doesn't work, same with the war on drugs. Regardless of my personal views I'm pretty libertarian on drug, food and drink consumption/regulation.

[Halvard]

It was a failure.

No,

Deep down, Anglos love only one thing, freedom. Freedom to think, freedom to do, freedom to believe.

Continental beasts are different, capable, but only want one thing; control, whether through religion, politics or war. Is it any wonder they hate our society and way of life?

Inb4 butthurt Dagos and krauts say we are cucked because of our monarchy. Our monarchs have being kept in check a lot lot longer than yours ever were.

P.S.

America is not Anglo anymore so it is not even in the top 15 or 20 so freest nations on earth. Individual freedom and personal liberty has reached its height in England regardless of what propaganda says e.g. Luxembourg.

The English Island mentality takes the form of a well-developed sense of individual personal freedom especially rights to privacy and personal space.
