Tempererence instead of Prohibition

In OTL most people accept that prohibition of alcohol was an error.

Many people (including me) suspect that the prohibtion of other drugs has been a mistake and as I understand it a lot of this resulted from US intitiatives in the 1920s

WI the movement (rightly) recognizing that alcohol misuse can be damaging had concentrated on social disaproval rather than outright prohibition.

I tend to imagine that American society would benefit from a LOT less people being in jail,

However both alcohol and currrently illegal drugs do damage.

Do u think demands for prohibiton might be coming from tghe progressive left in such a society

Is there a scenario or specific point of departure you are referring to?

Otherwise it looks like this would be better suited in chat wouldn’t it?
