mostra di piùWhen the US ratified the 18th amendment to its Constitution in January of 2019. A move that effectively banned the manufacture, sale and transportation of alcoholic beverages. It unknowingly, or at least unintentionally, created opportunity for bootleggers to ply their trade to customers for whom alcohol was a non-elastic necessity.
The usual shady characters – including organized crime groups – all stepped into the breach created by the 18th amendment. As did women. Ordinary. Everyday. Previously law abiding women.
On this week’s episode, I look at four legendary female bootleggers. How they did what they did.
Why they did what they did. And I explore the risk lessons we ought to learn from Masters of the Bootlegging Risk Universe.
