There is a very easy way to get the government off of your back.. pay more in taxes.
$6,028,119,000 is the total number of alcohol tax revenue in 2010. This is why the government taxes the drinks more while lessening the penalties. If street racing were this much of a profit to the government all you would see is a little anti racing campaign. This campaign would consist of using a small amount of the money to make bumper stickers, a short commercial, some billboards, and a 10 minute cheesy video used in drivers ed.
Its all politics
