c. Separation of Powers

Madison refers to all of the power of a government in one branch or in one person's power is how corruption and tyranny exist against a country's people. He would be supporting the idea of separating the powers between people so no one person had all the power.

The US creates separation of powers through the three branches of the federal government. The executive branch contains the president, their staff, and cabinet members. The legislative branch contains the Congress and the power to create laws. The judicial branch contains the court system which has the power to interpret and apply the laws of the land.

Three reasons why the prohibition was repealed
Y_Kistochka [10]

Explanation:

Tens of thousands of people died because of prohibition-related violence and drinking unregulated booze. The big experiment came to an end in 1933 when the Twenty-first Amendment was ratified by 36 of the 48 states. The Twenty-first Amendment was deemed so necessary (and the Eighteenth so ineffective), it is the only Constitutional amendment ever passed to overturn a previous amendment. Hence, Prohibition was a terrible mistake.
