Why was the 18th Amendment repealed by the 21st Amendment?

The 18th Amendment was repealed by the 21st Amendment because the prohibition of alcohol imposed by the 18th Amendment was widely seen as a failure, leading to increased crime, corruption, and a thriving underground alcohol market. The 21st Amendment was passed to restore the legal sale and consumption of alcohol in the United States.


What amendment gives the state their power?

There is no United States Amendment that gives or grants powers to the states. The Constitution of the United states and the subsequent amendments serves as the Supreme Law of the Land for the United States of America. As the Supreme Law of the Land, the Constitution begins with a preamble that states:We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution of the United States of America.The preamble begins with We the People, to make clear where the power comes from. It does not come from the Constitution or its subsequent amendments but from the People who have come together to establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense and secure the blessings of liberty, and it is the People who ordained and established that Constitution. All power flows from the People. The powers conferred upon the elected officials who have taken an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution, is not granted to them by a paper document, but by the willing consent of the people.The Amendment the question is most likely referring to is the Tenth Amendment of the Bill of Rights. The Tenth Amendment states:Amendment XThe powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.What this means is that if the Federal Government, whether it be Congress, the President, or the judicial branch, can only do what the Constitution allows them to do, and if the Constitution prohibits the Federal government from acting in certain way, and somebody or some state must act in that certain way, then that responsibility falls upon the states respectively or the people and not the federal government. No power was granted to the states by this amendment. The amendment instead is acknowledging the power the respective states all ready have and did not lose because a federal government was created.
