What Govt Act Bugs You Most?

You probably wouldn't be libertarians if you weren't bugged by some things
that governments do.  So I'd like to ask:  what thing that governments do
bugs you the *most*?    That is, what thing that
you see a goverment doing induces the strongest reaction in you of "they
shouldn't be doing that"?
(Either because no one should be doing that, or because it should be left
to private choice.)

I ask because I'm interested in what your "core" complaints are about
goverment, rather than complaints you might think you had the best case
for, or that you think would resonate best
with other people.

I'll give you my answer, but I don't want to bias your answers by giving
mine here.
