Ronald Regan identified the political class as ‘If it moves, tax it, if it continues to move, regulate it, if it stops moving, subsidize it.” When politicians find an inanimate object, such as seat belts, that they can’t tax they regulate it and assign a fine. Problem solved. Law Enforcement becomes the tax collector. Revenue Enhancement.
