Widespread resistance to the provisions of the Volstead Act demonstrated that D) Americans resent attempts to legislate morality. Also organized crime was made stronger by the Volstead act as these groups now made enormous amounts of money selling newly illegal alcohol. 

Answer:

D. Americans tend to oppose policies that''s curtail economic growth

Explanation:

The Volstead Act indicated that "“no person shall manufacture, sell, barter, transport, import, export, deliver, furnish or possess any intoxicating liquor except as authorized by this act." The demonstration characterized inebriating alcohol as any drink over 0.5% alcohol.  

It supplanted all current prohibition laws basically in states with such enactment. In spite of normal conviction, it didn't explicitly preclude the buy or utilization of inebriating liquors.
