The 18th Amendment to the Constitution is unconstitutional because it violates private property rights. To understand this more fully, one will notice that he can plug into the wording of the amendment virtually any piece of property and it reads logically, as in, "After one year from the ratificatio of this article the manufacture, sale, or transportation of (meatballs) within, the importation thereof into, or the exportation thereof from the United States and all territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof for (consumption) purposes is hereby prohibited." It is clear that the U.S. Constitution was never meant to prohibit people from owning property of any kind.
