The correct answer is A) Respect for the law decreased.
The outlawing of alcohol was supposed to result in America having less crime and violence. However, the actual effect was almost the direct opposite. For example, during this era millions of Americans continued to drink alcohol illegal. Many citizens lost respect for the law and continued to drink alcohol illegally thanks to the development of speakeasies (underground bars that served alcohol).
