Except for that in practice the only way you can get the law changed is if you can get enough people to break it.
- username223 11y agoThe obvious corollary to your statement is "in practice the only way you can affirm the law is to throw enough people in jail for breaking it." So do we throw more people who break food safety laws in jail, or pat them on the back?
