Quote:Actually, licensing, or taxing it would be the fairest way to distribute any social burden for having it "legal". This is the justification for gas taxes, and license tabs. The money is supposed to be used to pay for road upkeep.First, you'd probably want to demonstrate that there actually *is* a social burden from having it "legal". Seems pretty obvious to me - there's a large burden from having it illegal, and there sure isn't any income stream to help mitigate it.
