I smell government conspiracies like people smell Folgers first thing in the morning.
Some may also smell of BO (their own or their bedside companion of unknown species).
But getting back to the thesis at hand -
1. What if nudity and sex was legal in public places? It would put the entire porn industry out of work including the paparazzi and the lawyers and a whole big supply chain - hence such activities are illegal.
2. What if we legalized all forms of narcotics for self use and sold them at Kmart? It would put the cartels and the police force and many more institutions out of business - so we cannot do that. Job security.
3. What if we legalized suicide? Again it will put all the counselors and service staff out of business. Cannot do that.

4. What if we legalized driving at any speed suitable to the automobile design? Cannot do that - are you kidding? A functioning government has to have access to all manners of revenue and tickets are a major one.
Remember guns, cars, ropes, knives, rat poison are all legally available for purchase at your local Kmart or car dealer (ir)respectively.

In Spanish it means the rich coast so named by Columbus landing in early 16th century and being mesmerized by the local tribes sporting gold jewelry. Our stay included visiting the foothills of a large strato volcano called Arenal and enjoying the naturally heated thermal baths for a while. Lunching amidst lush forest and watching indigenous species of avian noise makers fly overhead. Toucans, some sort of pea hens, multiple song bird species completed the spectacle. Iguanas and a lonel...
