No law is going to change the human heart. As Madison said, if the people are corrupt, whatever form of govt we come up with is worthless. Passing all these laws to regulate human behavior is historically has one of two ends, it either ends in rebellion, or even more draconian laws by purists who want power more than purity.

That be a reckless and ignorant statement. It may be what your rainbow unicorn happy stars moon white clouds fantasy is but it is not backed by history.
