Idiocy knows no borders and will be found wherever people congregate. If magic was real (as in the Dresdenverse) there would be severe repercussions because magic has consequences. Imagine all the idiots who try to summon something or want to jump ahead to the "cool stuff" like making fireballs without putting in the discipline and training first. As much as I would love to be a wizard, I do not want our society to discover magic (in the Dresdenverse form).

Emotion-based power in the age of the offended. Not good.

Kindler:
If I had access to magic, I would be the world's greatest criminal. I'd wind up full blackhat in a month.

And you'd never catch me.

wardenferry419:
I would try to figure out a way to make modest money with minimal effort.

Kindler:
Bank robbing would be a piece of cake. Put everyone in the bank to sleep from outside, hex the cameras, walk in, empty the drawers, walk out. Several thousand dollars for a few minutes of work. Hell, maybe you could even do a portal cut by opening a Way into the Nevernever that bisects the vault door, cutting it open with a rip in space. Rinse and repeat across the country; with access to the Nevernever, you could hit anywhere you wanted with ease.

I know Harry frequently says that a lot of practitioners use their talents to make a lot of money, but I don't know how they do that legitimately outside consulting for people who already know about magic.
