It isn't so much about the crime as it is about the revenue and taxes that can be coerced from the citizenry based on lies and fiction. When you can create a whole industry based on lies and fiction, it is hard to dismantle it. Often in spite of what the sensible people desire. Just tell another lie and reinforce the previous lies.

Yes, so true.
We punish Iraq when the Saudis sent the majority of 9/11 bombers.
We go after the Johns because now the narrative is that women can not choose on their on validation to enter this business.
We go after legal gun owners when criminals shoot innocent people.
Maybe I'm becoming a cynic
