Clearly, you missed the joke.

Are you referring to programming, or laws?
I'm quite familiar with the Bank Secrecy Act, having to enforce its use every workday. I work at a casino.
That said, most people are incredibly paranoid about it, and are very much misinformed regarding its use. Many of them think its about taxes, and actually go out of their way to avoid the paperwork. What they don't realize is how much employees already know ahead of them actually cashing anything out, and how efforts to avoid reporting only makes things worse.

It's like the guy trying to get money out of his credit card, and when it's declined, talks like he pays the electric bill of the casino with how much he gambles. No you don't, and you're making a spectacle of yourself saying you do.

I can't really help you if the BSA is your problem; we need that to curtail financial crimes, and is probably the least invasive method of discovering them.
OTOH, transparency of banks themselves, especially the largest ones isn't at all a bad idea. But, for the US at least, one of the biggest issues is enforcement and punishment of violations, not discovering them.

Good question. Are laws just an attempt to program a society of people,
like coding is an attempt to program a computer.
I dont' know; now I need to make a program that will simulate a human
society. Let's call it the Human Society Simulator (HSS) and see
how the act of writing laws can influence a society, and make them do
what I want it to do. hmm?
