    This is my favorite argument against government regulation.

    Anything not foolproof definitely isn’t worth doing at all.

      Theres a scale of influence, with a big difference between foolproof and entirely unenforceable.

      In this case, it’s effectively unenforceable, so what’s the point in wasting time and effort drafting something that won’t actually make any difference?
