You cannot legislate morality or common sense and nefarious people can and do take advantage of laws put in place to help those who have difficulties. There is a very hot place in hell for this kind of thing in my humble opinion. It took me about eight decades to figure out the right questions and I don't seem to be getting the right answers to any of them. OR ANY answers to most of them.
