“[W]e have had many attempts at regulation of industrial activity by law. Some of it has proceeded on the theory that if those who enjoyed material prosperity used it for wrong purposes, such prosperity should be limited or abolished. That is as sound as it would be to abolish writing to prevent forgery.” -Calvin Coolidge
[Attempts to impose morality through law are destined to fail, and at the cost of liberty for the majority who are already living a moral life.]
