QOTD #87653: “If you could break any law or rule of society, what would you like to get away with?”
There are certain rules of society and laws in place that we wish we didn’t have to follow. Just imagine if you never had to pay taxes or drive under the speed limit. If you had the power, what’s one law you’d love to wipe off the books? Record your answer at beontheair.com and join us on the air for our Thursday Big Show!

Summit, NJ
Breaking laws, not my morals.
"I think honestly, this is pretty basic, but I would just probably steal something, I'm gonna be honest. Like, I think my quality of life would be greatly improved just by honestly having more money so I don't have to worry about that, so I can just do things I enjoy without being anxious about the fact that, 'Oh, do I have enough money to afford that?' kind of thing. So yeah, that's probably what I'd do, and I'd steal it from, you know, someone who wouldn't really miss it - probably a pretty moral crime, for given value of 'moral.'"

Athens, OH
Museum raiders tip too.
"Honestly, I would break into a restricted section in some famous museums and just take a ton of pictures and take that stuff home and be able to look at it all the time, and then probably have some really good food for free, um, and still leave a tip, obviously. But that would be"
Kolade K
Chapel Hill, NC
Life-swap with a billionaire makes sense.
"If there was one law I could break, it would most likely be identity theft. I would take the identity of some super-rich billionaire and just completely steal his life. I know it sounds bad, but it really does make a lot of sense to me."
James B
Los Angeles, CA
Steal to save the world.
"If I could break any law or rule in society, it would 100% be just to steal money. Um, I think money makes the world go round, and you could be doing infinite things like giving the money to my parents or giving back to the community, Rob a bank for a million dollars and donate it to charity. We could fix world hunger just like that."
Victoria S
Baton Rouge, LA
Nothing's safe at the museum.
"So if I could, like, break any law ever, it simply - I mean, it'd be stealing things. Like, I would love to just go take whatever piece of clothing I want or, like, jewelry - that'd be dope - or, like, art, especially if I could, like, rob an art museum, that would be cool. I would totally just, like, take a bunch of stuff. I know that sounds, like, basic but, like, I'd take everything I wanted, just, like, all the clothes, all the jewelry, all the art."
Tara C
Stay at home mom
Tripping out the bank.
"You know, we're just speaking hypothetically, right? 'Cuz if I could rob a bank, if I could rob a bank, oh my gosh, I would be on vacation right now. I would be going wherever I want. And I know it's it's wrong, but we're just saying if it was okay - If I could break any law and get away with it, I'm robbing a bank. I'm going to the bank. I need some money, okay?"
Samantha S
Brooklyn, NY
Health, house, and no hassle.
"Let's see. I would probably - I don't know if it's a law, but, uh, wanting to not have to pay for my rent and health insurance but still having both a home and health insurance would probably be the rule that I would want to break, because living in New York is just too expensive. So the rule I would choose to break is living for free and that money would not be not be a rule for me to have to live by."
Neva S
Plumwood, OH
Stealing the dream life.
"So if no rules applied to me, I would definitely just be able to, like, walk into a bank anytime, anywhere, and just get whatever amount of money that I wanted. That way, I would be able to just live my dream life and never have to worry about work - never have to worry about paying the bills. I would just travel, take pictures, and that would be my life."
Luke J
Holly Springs, NC
Full-speed road trip.
"Oh my gosh, I already know which one. So I like to go - Me and my girlfriend like to go on long-distance vacations, and if there was no such thing as speed limit and those roads that're like super long and you can just go as fast as you go, that would be amazing. Just go, like, 120 miles per hour, or 200 - 120."
Hailey T
New Orleans, LA
Robbing the right people.
"If I could break any rules, oh, it would probably be something pretty practical like steal a million dollars or even half a million dollars, or just 20,000 would do, I guess, if there was really no penalty. Although I wouldn't want to cause hardship on anybody that I stole it from, so maybe from a large"
Greg T
Arvada, CO
Save the day the outlaw way.
"If in this world I'm allowed to break any rule or law, I think it has to be a rule that would benefit other people, not just myself, because if I did something where it was just good for me, then that probably would go pretty wrong and people would probably want to kill me. So, I think I'd have to do something like somehow outlawing poverty or making healthcare free for everyone."
Allegra E
Philadelphia, PA
Start a law-breaking chain.
"If I could break any rule or law, I would probably participate in some kind of theft involving money in order to create financial security. And the reason why I choose this is because I recognize that having financial security often makes it easier to break other types of rules and laws and have fewer repercussions."
Jesse B
Burbank, CA
Putting hurt on the haters.
"I would like to, uh, do bad things to hateful people - all the, you know, supremacists and all that."
Jessica T
Vancouver, Wa
Who can resist Robin Hood?
"Okay, if I could commit one crime, it would probably be stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. I would be the Robin Hood. Who could resist that?"
Star E
Evans, GA
Breaking the bank.
"If I could break any rule and get away with it, I would break into a bank. Um, you know, unfortunately, the way the world works, it works around money, so having money, you know - Hey, but that's what I would do."
Alyssa D
Wyanet, IL
A hall pass to trespass.
"I think that I would say trespassing because I see so many buildings on a day-to-day basis that I am so curious as to what is inside. And so for one day, I would just love to go and explore and ease my curiosity."
Jeff S
Chappaqua, NY
Mattress tags, beware!
"And I would rip the tag off of every mattress that I can find in sight."
Evan F
Ann Arbor, MI
How about a pet tiger?
"So there's definitely just some really ridiculous laws out there, like, I think that some states have laws like, oh, you can't have a tiger, or something. Like, who would ever want a tiger? But that'd be kind of a fun law to break and have a pet tiger. So, that'd be kinda cool."
Madison M
Waco, TX
Netflix and drive.
"I really wish it were legal to be able to watch Netflix while you're on a road trip 'cuz driving for eight hours - need some stimulation."
Scott C
Riverdale, NY
Just a little laundering.
"This isn't so much a rule as it is a law, but it would be money laundering. No further elaboration necessary."
Lauren A
Lancaster, PA
Out-rob the competition.
"If I could break a rule no one else could break, I would absolutely rob a bank - like, absolutely. There would be no one else trying to compete with you to also rob a bank because you're the only one. It would be like a walk in, walk out kinda thing. "

Zipping and zapping across the universe.
"Would there be anything better than to break Einstein's law that no matter can travel faster than the speed of light? That means you're zip-zap-zopping around the universe. That's the best."
Quinn H
Los Angeles, CA
Can't pass up trespassing.
"If I could break one law, it'd probably be trespassing. I feel like I want to go to a bunch of places that I can't normally go, like maybe study in the Oval Office or play pickup at the Staples Center and stuff like that."
Shaina S
Fort Worth, TX
I might do GTA.
"So, I don't like getting in trouble, so it definitely kind of scares me. So, I probably wouldn't do anything, but I guess, like, grand theft auto would be kinda cool, maybe. I don't know. It'd be cool to get, like, a really cool car and get away with it, but, um, I probably wouldn't do anything because I'm a wimp."

Beatrice H
NY, NY
Swimming in money, like Ocean's Eleven.
"As a big Ocean's Eleven fan, I think that I would go the route of robbing a casino, be as in this case, I wouldn't have the threat of actually getting arrested, and I could definitely make a lot of money doing this."
Jordan M
Dallas, TX
Fast and law-free.
"Speeding, so I could get around quickly and no one else would be able to go as quickly as I could."
Chris P
Virginia
That's easy; rob.
"I would rob a bank, easily."

Makee J
Las Vegas, NV
No money, no problems.
"If I could break any rule or get away with anything, it would definitely be to live free, where money is not an object and I can buy and do whatever I want without having to spend money."
