Political Corruptin: Alcohol

This is a blog post about the political corruption in the 1920's during the time the book "The Great Gatsy" took place. In the 1920's alot of things where illegal including alcohol and this was used alot in the 1920's. They had secret bars called Speakeasies they where very small usualy located in people's homes they had gambling and every thing in them. In the book "The Great Gatsby" the little gathering on Tom's porch they had alcoholic drinks and in the party at Gatsby's there was alcohol and at the part at Myrtle's there was alcohol. All the rich people had alcohol even though it was illegal, they didnt care because some of the guests at their parties where politicians, this is one way of Political Corruption of the 1920's.
