The U.S. Treasury Department said on Sunday it would not enforce an anti-money laundering law that obliges millions of business entities to disclose the identities of their real beneficial owners.
What’s the difference between arbitrary rule and a proper democracy that allows the leading party to ignore the law? Asking for a friend.
In the latter, rules more or less apply to everyone. In the former, rules apply to people the arbitrary ruler doesn’t like.
