1. It's a start!

Australia did something like this but made it mandatory. The government would buy them or confiscate them after a grace period. Owner's choice, get recompense or surrender it gratis.

That's right, Gunners, I used the word 'confiscate'. It could happen. Not any time soon, but it's commin'.
