If you had the power to make anything illegal (no matter how frivolous it may be), what would it be?

I would make it illegal to resell at gouging prices. When I was younger, it was illegal to buy up concert tickets and then resell them at a higher price, probably because there were less opportunities for other people to buy the tickets at the regular price because somebody else already bought them up to resell for a higher price (usually hundreds of percent over the regular retail price). That was a hairy big deal when I was a teenager, and they even sent police officers to concert venues in order to find people who were doing this and arresting them.

Then there are people who buy up all of the most popular child's toy for Christmas and resell them for a tidy profit. Even something like Heston's Hidden Orange Pudding (which it's a limited run every Christmas) are bought up and sold at a gouging price off of Ebay. I find this behavior disgusting and I wish it were illegal. I'm not talking about someone who dumpster dives or goes to garage sales and buys something, cleans it up, and then sells it. That is a sign of reasonable and responsible capitalism. I'm talking about those who would cheat and gouge (and sometimes steal) in order to make a buck.  :peace: :heart:

If you are losing your hair please dont comb it from the back.  I work with a guy who combs his hair from the back of his head to the front.  Like we all don't realize he's balding, just be natural or shave your head, it's the style now but what you are doing looks stupid.

Rudeness and/or a lack of kindness.  Maybe hurting other people.  I don't know anything where people come against other people.  Nice post.

Nothing. We have too many laws as it is.

So how about making it illegal to make any new laws? Woo hoo.  :party:
