Its still a great joke nonetheless and can be applied during any time period. Who knows where the actual origins are from?

Prohibition was mostly in the 1920’s; the Depression was largely in the 30’s, though there was a bit of overlap.

the great depression and prohibition werent on a parallel time frame, in 1933 prohibition was repealed, the great depression wasn’t considered over until the start of WWII (1939)

Just as a note to Smudge, it was Tarintino who told it in Desperado, not Steve Buschemi

One problem, the Great Depression was during prohibition. All bars were closed, and it was illegal to get drunk. Other than that, great.

Actually the joke was told by Quentin Tarantino in Desperado. To be totally technical.
