Sure it will. If the cost of arresting someone was potentially a few hundred thousand dollars each time, the police would have to be a lot more careful about whom they arrest. Cities and counties would literally be unable to afford to arrest everyone.
As far as the rest of your comment is concerned, full agreement here, even regarding the pipe-shapedness of the dream :(
