Carlisle when you're kept from something you want by someone else, you seek it more sometimes. To keep people from certain things is the point of laws, but there will always be people who wanted that forbidden thing and think it was a good thing for them, if that makes sense.
Some other people, they trust lawmakers and worship them in a sense. Whatever the lawmaker writes, they take it to be good and abide by it.
We ban lots of bad things but only certain things increase in desire publicly when banned. This is because public opinion on certain things or the zeitgeist may hold something as acceptable, kinda like how drugs have been banned in the U.S. and are sought after even more in America. Driving under the influence was another thing that was banned here for example, but you don't find the majority of people increasing or fighting more to drink and drive as much. Accidents by drunk driving in teens has gone down annually, but everyone likes to drink. It's not that banning it has particularly made it more or less appealing, it's that people don't wanna do it
Hopefully this articulates what I was trying to highlight 😅
That it's dependent on the desires of the people. If they want certain privileges and think it's good, banning them tends to have that inverse effect of increased desire, because they're out of tune with the law
