That's what the govt does -- it passes laws for the benefits of its citizens -- that's pretty much all it does.
Some of those laws are regulatory and prospective, meaning they are intended to prevent behaviors that might harm others -- some are punitive, meaning they are intended to punish those who have harmed others.
Protecting the rights of citizens -- and performing the other functions necessary to keep govt running -- is the vast majority of what a govt does.

It is called "highly unusual".
Usually, the laws are to protect the criminals.

Opening the door by politicians to get rich off the hard work of their constituents. In my opinion.
