You cannot totaly reduce the crime rate in America without reducing jay-walking as jay-walking is so prevalent. True. You cannot totaly reduce foreign oil dependency unless you reduce the use of plastic drinking straws as drinking straws are so prevalent. True. You cannot totaly reduce water pollution without stopping folks from peeing in the river as peeing in the river is so prevalent. True. You will have only statistics to show for an anti Jay-Walking, Drinking Straw and Pee agenda as there will be no meaningful effect on the lives of Americans at all. Jay-walking vs DUI? You pick it. Drinking Straws vs Better CAFÉ standards? You pick it. Pee Guards vs serious prosecution of corporate pollution of our waterways? You pick it. Pot vs Cocaine? Etc.
