Regulatory czar Cass Sunstein wants to fine speech related to conspiracy theories:
What can government do about conspiracy theories? Among the things it can do, what should it do? We can readily imagine a series of possible responses. (1) Government might ban conspiracy theorizing. (2) Government might impose some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories.
- Sunstein's January 2008 "Conspiracy Theories," page 14.
