The moon...It's shining...Too much makes me sick!

George Remus got rich from purchasing mass amounts whiskey certificates at 65 cents to $4 a case when the nation went dry and later sold them at $80 a case. This whiskey was not cut with anything because it was professionaly made before the Volstead Act.

Moonshine (home-made alcoholic beverages) and wood alcohol, however, was cut with dangerous ingredients such as Nitric Acid, Sulfuric Acid, antifreeze, embalmbing fluid, rubbing alcohol, burnt sugar, and Nitrous Ether. Tens of thousands of people would die before Prohibtion was over from these cut alcoholic drinks.
