The PENGUIN GUIDE to the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION
by Richard Beeman   
Amendment XVIII
Most of the amendments to the Constitution seek to grant specific rights to the people by placing restraints on the actions of the government. The Eighteenth Amendment is the only amendment that has sought to restrict the rights of the people -- in this case the right to manufacture, sell, or transport ''intoxicating liquors'' within the United States. Interestingly, it does not prevent the consumption of liquor. Though liquor consumption declined markedly during the years when the amendment was in force, it certainly did not cease. Indeed, as people turned to illegal sources for their alcoholic beverages, the operation of the Eighteenth Amendment served to encourage otherwise law-abiding people to break the law nd bolster the activities of organized crime.
