Toxic Leadership: Did the US Govt Poison Prohibition Alcohol?

Alcohol, on the whole, is not good for you. On the one hand as a social lubricant it can be a lot of fun, but the costs to the health of both individuals and society cannot be ignored. The example of Prohibition in the United States suggests how governments have tried to step in to curb the vice of alcoholism.

Such a move was drastic, and only of limited effectiveness. But it seems that under the surface there were far worse things at work under the guise of Prohibition than ever came from drinking alcohol. There is horrifying evidence that the US government may have used extreme measures, such as poisoning alcohol, to keep people away from drinking.

Did the US government poison the alcohol supplies to enforce Prohibition? And what happened to the people who drank from the poisoned cup?
