How about paying for legislation and enforcement of the laws you propose? Are you willing to pay for that? How about the cost of determining if the box was used in the event of a theft or accident? Are you willing to pay for that? How about the cost of medical care for over worked police officers who are tasked to enforce stupid laws that do nothing more than make the rich people feel good. How much are you going to pony up for that?
