Right. Taxation is for cases where we want to reduce something to a lesser, tolerable amount like how much cigarettes or trans fats or personal wealth creation the unwashed are permitted. When we want to stop something altogether, we write down on paper how much we dislike it and then it goes away completely under the prohibition.

Why don’t we ban all assault asteroids? Problem solved.

We'll start by banning all assault asteroid accessories.
