@siggy47 not sure how this is post is related with ~Politics_And_Law as its contents are more focused on business-related events. I understand that "territorization" is sometimes subjective, but let me suggest that, perhaps in the future, when the subject has more to do with business topics, then posting in the ~AGORA territory would be more appropriate, so your content will reach a more relevant audience and productive conversation. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation ;)
The post is about civil forfeiture, which is a law. It was not primarily about buying and selling stuff, or business in general. Civil asset forfeiture laws affect people whether or not they are involved in commerce.

The government knows they can get away with it. Here's an older article from the New Yorker :

I guess the easier way is to switch jurisdiction. We are always good to say there's something wrong here and there. Did you ever think you might be the one doing something wrong (unconsciously) and these are just the consequences of it? We, probably like many many many of us, does not even know what they are doing, we believe doing something because we have thought so, never verified. We always expect thing to change and continue doing everything as we have learned. To change this, start doing things differently, and you'll see the change. Especially with law related manners.

this is eye-opening: there is a group with a mission to capture people into states.
"At the end of 2022, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (the agency mandated to prevent and reduce statelessness) counted 4.4 million stateless persons worldwide but estimated that the actual number may be over 10 million due to underreporting."
my theory is that very soon getting a citizenship will be no different than getting a google account: easy, free, and fun.

Legislation is really a subset of law- law enacted by a legislative body. Whatever you call it, it's theft.
