You have to pick:

Find out homeopathy really works
 
or
 
Be able to break any law you want for the rest of your life, and instead of suffering the consequences you have to pay $1 for each day of jail time you would have served.

If it actually turned out work it would make it very easy (and cheap) to cure many diseases. It would be awesome. The only downside would be smug homeopathist's saying "I told you so." But I can live with that if it means the elimination of all disease.

You pay 1/1000th the fine if there is no jail time.

If you steal something you have to also pay back the amount of the theft (you can't use this to make money by stealing).

As a rational skeptic I would happily accept homeopathy to work if it were proved to do so... Unfortunately all the (credible) evidence is completely against it.

@ineedmayo: Thats basically what this options is offering. Credible evidence appears for it and it REALLY works. This is, of course, different from reality - but so is the ability to travel back in time, or any other weird thing on this site.

So, if you accept as the premise that homeopathy works (the same way you accept that say you suddenly grow wings or turn into a cat) then it would actually be super awesome. Suddenly curing anything is as easy as distillng water! Score!

it doesn't specify that it had to be governmental laws, what about the law of physics in alchemy, of equivalent exchange. just make air into billions of dollars at will.
you can mess with everything

as well as time travel
matter control
superpowers
invincibility
as a matter of fact you could just become a GOD

No laws that says you can't right;)
