Why did roosevelt work against prohibition?

Franklin D. Roosevelt opposed Prohibition primarily because he believed it contributed to organized crime and corruption, rather than solving the social issues it aimed to address. He also recognized the potential economic benefits of legalizing alcohol, especially during the Great Depression, as it could create jobs and generate tax revenue. Roosevelt's stance was part of a broader shift in public opinion, leading to the repeal of Prohibition in 1933. Ultimately, he saw the repeal as a means to restore individual freedoms and improve the economy.
