Precisely. I'm saying that, if we already have it anyway, we ought to regulate it. If we can abolish it, great. If not, then it should be heavily regulated, with the funds earmarked for things that aren't enforcement-related, so that there's less perverse incentive for law enforcement to just grab things for shits, giggles and greed. The government can and will seize your home for nonpayment of taxes, so it's not like this doesn't already happen outside of civil asset forfeiture. It's just a matter of how well-regulated the system is, and what steps are taken to reduce perverse incentives.

Power tripping murderpigs and ecocidal narcissists with their two-ton pollution powered people crushers are basically equivalent evils, anything that pits them against each other without adding any risk to pedestrians is a win.
