You can get into trouble if you ingest a disapproved intoxicant or narcotic. Heck, you can get in trouble for ingesting some approved ones without permission.It's probably impossible to simply exist for 24 hours without breaking some obscure law inflicted upon us by arrogant legislators at the local, state and federal levels.
You can get into trouble if you refuse to sell your land to the government at any price when politicians decide they want it for a public or private use...
You can get into trouble for doing some jobs without a government license, even if your customers are perfectly happy.
And, oh yes, soon you'll get into trouble for not buying a health-insurance policy.
You can get into trouble for doing a long list of other things that harm no one whatsoever. The things I'm thinking of are not objectively wrong. They're just mandates and prohibitions decreed by a legislature and signed by an executive.
"It's the law."
