My point is these societies have the rule of law, and the vast majority of laws don't have a "unless you have 50 employees or less" or "unless your revenue is under $1 mil" qualifier. The difference in treatment is often a complex precedent of leniency in enforcement or punishment, but ultimately the rules are the same for everyone, even if you have to upset the 8 year old selling lemonade.
