I find the US legal system more amusing the more I keep stumbling on these cases.
Spend enough money lobbying or just file a suit against the state, win, and you can get a law repealed.
Meanwhile, here…
The governmente draws a project of law.
The parliamente debates, votes it, discusses it in specialty commitee, votes it again, reviews it until it can get a majority to pass, gets shipped to the President for promulgation and if it gets ratified, it becomes law and is it.
You have an issue with, you draw your case against the law itself, take it to the Constitutional Court and if you have a case, the law gets to be reviewed and rectified. Not taken down: reviewed. Once a law, unless it gets completely repealed, by another law, you’re stuck with it.

The rich can lobby in your country too.

Not enough rich people to lobby.
