What is the worst real or imaginary laws that would be really bad?

Asked by RedDeerGuy1 (24925points) May 1st, 2023

Like taxing tax refunds? I hope that it doesn’t happen.

What would you come up with?

Humor welcome.

Law: all adults must eat beets daily. I like beets, but not every day.

@Hawaii_Jake Excellent answer.

I would hate to be a law that one should be able to touch their toes while standing. I never could. Like in George Orwell’s 1984.

Equipping police officers/teachers/parents/flight attendants, barbers, with tranquilizer bullets/needles.

Requiring you to wear a step tracker, claiming you must make a minimal step count per day “for your health” or pay penalties for coming up short, then taxing said steps for “environmental reasons”. So much wrong in so few words there. Even 1 cent per step is far too high.

If it was decreed that your children belonged to the state and any children you had must be taken from you to be raised in government run nurseries and schools. That would be pretty bad.

I think outlawing AK47s would be a great idea, but can you imagine being a compliance officer whose job is to go to people’s homes to collect them?

No sweets unless you eat your brussel sprouts – which are simply boiled with no seasoning. And you have to have them every day.

@smudges How cruel, not even a pat of butter?! I’d still take that deal!

^^ LOL I hated brussel sprouts, especially the way my mom used to make them – just boiled. I’d actually quarter them and swallow them with milk like a pill.

I’ve had some recently that were broiled with olive oil and, I think, garlic and they were good.

Having your technology rat you out. From traffic infractions to swearing at home.
