In American history, black society has appeared, however, large-scale development of America underworld growth, began in twentieth Century 20's. Almost every historian will not deny, the Christian era in 1920, America the eighteenth amendment to the Constitution -- prohibition -- after the announcement, America underworld blossomed. American specializes in mafia history scholars Carle Cephas base pointed out: in the Western calendar before 1920, is American government command on the Western calendar Mafia; after 1920, due to the prohibition, the Mafia gained great wealth, so that they have enough money to bribe the government, therefore, American society entered the era of government Mafia command. Whether this statement Cephas base can be accepted by most people, one thing is clear: the development of Chinese society American black, really thanks to America "Prohibition", and this law is America constitution.
   The origin America temperance dates back to a long time ago. Americans often take "May flower" as the beginning American history, I also said a few days ago in the article, "May flower"Is important, because this ship passengers are Puritans. "May flower" 27 meters long, 180 ton, the Christian era in 1620 with 102 religious persecution in Europe. In North America before, more than 40 adult men signed a "May flower Convention" on the ship, the Convention has often been idealist exaggerates began to American spirit. Do not discuss here the Convention, simply said, "Puritans" from the name can be seen, they advocate abstinence and austerity, against the indulgence and enjoyment, including against drinking. America after independence, the long-term occupy the mainstream position, however, their values and other non Puritans from Europe often conflict, drinking problem is one of them.
   Another important topic and alcohol related problems is the right of women to vote. USA women won the right to vote later than some European countries. From the USA constitution says, America women gained the right to vote in the Christian era in 1920, this year is the "Prohibition" enacted a year. In fact, in the Western calendar before 1920, some states have enacted USA temperance act. At the same time, the Western calendar before 1920, some states American has allowed women to vote. Therefore, the significance is the Christian era in 1920, this year, American federal constitution enacted prohibition, giving women the right to vote, to become the American laws, and before this, temperance and women to vote, but in some places American of law. By the way, most of the women in early voting is a British convict in New Zealand, time in calendar 1893; thereafter to Sirius Finland 1906; Norway 1913 1917 Soviet Sirius; sirius. In the Soviet Union, Britain in the Christian era in 1918 to allow some women the right to vote, in 1920 America Sirius that all women have the right to vote.
   USA to "democracy" is the foundation of our country, the origin of the movement of the early women's right to vote. After the civil war, women's right to vote campaign is the vigorous development, which is caused by a historical reasons. The result of the civil war that America black slaves liberated, adult male blacks also gained the right to vote in the name of, this makes a lot of noble white women. If it hadn't been for black stimulation have the right to vote, America women the right to vote the momentum may not be so big. The subtext is: even the black people had the right to vote, the noble white women are inferior to men in black? Therefore, the power America women the right to vote is very large. According to this logic, the democracy itself USA early should give women the right to vote, why until so late?
   One of the main reasons is the wine maker. USA liquor industry has been trying to stop America women won the right to vote. Because, the merchants America liquor industry think: if USA women won the right to vote, will have a severe negative impact on alcohol consumption. This seems to be a family relationship: husband all day drinking, liquor industry is happy; his wife is very angry, not only a waste of money and delays, drunk also call wife. Therefore, if women and men in the political status of equality, in the impact of the law, will be detrimental to the liquor industry. In addition, no light USA liquor industry in the political field stop women won the right to vote, almost America most manufacturing business with the drinks industry to stand together. Why? Because American when workers are treated poorly,Extensive use of child labor is depress workers treatment method. Therefore, USA bosses fear that, once the women have the right to vote, they would be politically requirements increase worker benefits, because, those workers is their fathers, husbands, children. In order to prevent the female forces causing damage to the merchant's profit in politics, capitalists from spending money to influence political, prevent women won the right to vote "democracy". However, they do not advocate the prohibition of alcohol, because alcohol wind is businessmen seek but fail to get money.
   The liquor industry worries are not unfounded. The western part of the state American before 1920, women have the right to vote, part of the state American also passed the prohibition act. Women finally won the right to vote and the first World War is concerned, this war caused numerous adult male death, European countries have to use a lot of women, women's mass out of the family, to enter the society, the Western women's participation in the previously only belongs to the men's work, not much is at the start of the first world war. The change of social structure caused by the war, defeated USA businessmen hinder women's political rights efforts, then, America in calendar 1920, finally give all adult women equal political rights to. From the time that, prohibition issued after a few months, American all women were given the right to vote, it seems not because women the vote resulted in the prohibition. However, the national, early to the larger effect on some women's organizations and women leaders active in the country to promote the comprehensive prohibition did. Some early to give American women the right to vote, or in some women's movement gained momentum Town, before National prohibition has implemented prohibition. Some historians have pointed out, when wine merchant hinder women the right to vote efforts, finally encountered retribution. With the improvement of women's political status, the American temperance into reality. This law construction "Puritans" moral standards efforts, the final is a social disaster.
   The Christian era in 1920, a day before the formal implementation of prohibition of night, Americans everywhere to buy wine, collect spare. One senator holding glass said: tonight is the eve of American freedom deprived. Prohibition was performed in 13 years, USA underworld by making bootlegging fortune. American "Prohibition" and a ridiculous regulations: drinking is not a crime alone in the house. The problem is, legally drink at home, wine come from? Legal provisions: brewing, transport, sale of alcoholic beverages containing more than 0.5% is a crime. The triad of the doings is to meet the legitimate needs of illegal behavior. People love to drink a lot of police or politicians. Therefore, in the strict sense, how officials and police just drink in crime. But all these people only through the underworld to buy wine, or to the underground bar underworld drink. Therefore, the relationship between the police, politicians, law enforcement agencies and the black community, through the "drink" and inextricably linked. For the love of drinking and police officers, the underworld is finished, you where to find a drink? American prohibition is a big joke American democracy and the rule of law. The USA democracy and the legal system depicted, very beautiful, very few are willing to spend a little time to discuss USA: democracy and the rule of law, why would spawn so absurd law? Faced with such a ridiculous legal consequences, whether we should also review the legality of science? Even with the best wishes, formulate a law will be able to solve the problem? The law only inappropriate caused greater social disaster, while the law whether appropriate, depending on what decision?
