So how's that alcohol prohibition thing workin' out for ya?

Funny, seems to me that we still have a Prohibition going on. And we didn't even need a Constitutional Amendment to do it the second time.

Do you think the government will ever give back it's newfound emminent domain power?

Yes.

Did you think that the government was ever going to give up its power to ration goods (World War 2 had U.S. ration coupons and tickets)?

Or the draft?

Or alcohol prohibition?

Or gold prohibition?

Or its power to segregate schools?

Or its estate tax?

Or its monopoly on space flight (civilians were banned from civilian space flights until December of 2004)?
