In a system where nearly everything is forbidden are burdensomely permitted, enforcement ends up targeting the most vulnerable in society (the poor, minorities, etc). I think most Americans would be shocked if, overnight, every law on the books in the US, from income tax on cash income to street vendor permitting, to casual, personal drug usage, to hair salon certification laws, to laws against home poker games, were stringently and consistently enforced across the board. Half of Americans would be in prison or in court before the end of the year.
