Daily writing prompt
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why?
I find this question lacking in wisdom. Changing laws will not change people’s morals. And laws are hard to enforce, always some people will get away with illegal stuff.
We need laws the same way we need safety features on tools, but they dont’ guarantee no one will get hurt. They just reduce the amount of people who will.
But that’s what to ask if you’d just add or change one law, its not really addressing the issue. You can’t mandate morality that closely.
But one thing I think is that we have too many laws.
We shouldn’t need permits to do everything now. It’s ridiculous to pay someone else for what you do with your own property. It’s an example of how laws get to be too numerous and impose on people’s rights.
Just my opinion.
