>No government wants to enable money laundering, black markets, corruption and terrorism; or so I thought!

what ever gave you that thought? There are countries that do this right out in the open. The rest of the countries do it in various shades of gray to not be right out in the open, but still visible for those that can see in higher bit depths of gray than black and white

You're not wrong, but your comment lacks so much necessary detail that I find it's just causing noise.

I mean, how much details do you need for this to be understood? Every tinpot dictator openly run black markets, are the definition of corrupt, while many openly operate or support terrorist organizations within their borders. Depending one looking at the US from the point of view of someone living in a country they have rained freedom down on for the past quarter century probably feels the same towards the US. Launching missiles from a remotely operated drone blowing up buildings while incurring civilian casualties definitely has the feeling of terrorism to me. They just hide it under the veil of defeating terrorism shades of gray.

I really feel like your comment was much more noisy than mine ever was.

Don't leave out money laundering! The US is also competitively good at that, post-9/11.

Err, I mean "good at ensuring the absolute privacy and confidentiality of financial clients."
