Regarding copper theft, I don’t understand why laws can’t be passes (if not already) that limits copper scrap dealers are forbidden from purchasing copper wire from someone who is obviously fencing (pun acknowledged) and not a legitimate contractor. If there is no buyer, the thieves would likely dry up.

Bingo!

The metal scrap yard operators are in on it.

The homeless dreck who show up with copper cables are thieves to anyone without an agenda.

Have you ever met any of the guys that do recycling? The guys that bring the stuff in are the weirdos.
