Homer versus the 18th Amendment

If I were to a producer of the Simpson’s, I would make the episode show more of the people who wanted to reject the bill. To show both sides and how they felt about the Prohibition, so they should have argued both sides more. It would show off the authority of the government, in which there wasn’t much of in this episode. But I feel the Producers did do a good job at providing a good example of the effects the Prohibition had on society. It accurately portrayed the public drunkenness and fighting, which was the most popular thing that occurred.
The Producers of the Simpson's portrayed the Prohibition of the 1920's truthfully and quite well for a humorous, fictional cartoon show. They included the 18^th Amendment and the effects it had on society. Speakeasies, bootlegging, illegal trading, and even cops drinking, were effects of the 18^th Amendment and were portrayed honestly in the show. The accuracies of these events in the episode outweigh the fictional comedy. I enjoyed this episode, and thought it gave a good representation of the Prohibition era by portraying it in a modern way.
