Proposal: Prohibition

If the proposal "Mob Rules" passes, add the following Law Rule, "Moonshining":

When this rule is passed, all People have one Bathtub. A Bathtub is a game object, trackable via the GNDT. No more than once per 24-hour period per Bathtub they own, any Person may brew one unit of Hooch -- again, a game object trackable via the GNDT.

...And the following Law Rule, "Eighteenth Amendment":

Any Policeman may Arrest any Person (other than the Don) who he observes, via the GNDT, to have brewed Hooch within the preceding 24 hours -- provided that that Person still has at least one unit of Hooch. If this Arrest is in all ways lawful, the Arrested Person becomes a Prisoner. Unfortunately, Policemen may not constitutionally arrest perps who have already unloaded their Hooch, due to lack of evidence.

Finally, if "Mob Rules" passes but "Takeraway and Booker" fails, instate the following Law Rule, "Jail," from the latter proposal:

Some People may be Prisoners. This is marked in a GNDT column. While a Person is a Prisoner, he/she may not make Proposals of any sort, though he/she can still vote on them. If a Mobster is a Prisoner, he/she may make a private request to the Don to be removed from the list of Mobsters.

Why brew hooch? Who decides whether an arrest is lawful? And how do you get out of jail? You decide!
