Reading through Wil Wheaton's blog, and coming across his entry about drugs, I was curious about why it was necessary for the government to pass a constitutional amendment to have a prohibition on alcohol (18th Amendment), why isn't it necessary to have one to combat drugs?
The powers of government haven't changed, and the goals and methods are the same, so why did one require a Constitutional amendment, but the War on Drugs does not.
Something seems amiss.
