Tolerance of victimless crimes that hurt no one is a Kafkaesque nightmare?


Letting "victimless crimes" exist in the books for whenever a powerful entity wants an excuse to jail someone, or to excuse inequitable enforcement of the law.

If the law is stupid then congress should cancel (delete?) it. Don't allow big guys avoid them but the little guy with no lawyers on retainer has to follow then.
