    Answers B, D and E are correct about the results of Prohibition.

    Explanation:

    The prohibition of manufacture, transportation, and trade of alcohol led to the exploration of loopholes in the law and to the creation of many illegal ways to get and to sell alcohol.

    The establishment of speakeasies - - secret places where alcohol was sold - - and increase in organized crime are striking features of the Prohibition era. These activities could take place through bribery of public agents.

    Despite broad illegal actions, alcohol consumption decreased. Prohibition impacted mainly poor people because drinking became an expensive habit to keep.
