A good example of this is when politicians pass laws "to do something",
whether or not that is a something that helps.

And more often than not, the laws they pass are either unenforceable or
unhelpful, or both. Don't get me started on this on.
FWIW: It's still unlawful to leave a horse tied to a hitching post in
Detroit for more that 4 hours; the fine is $2. And they still have
"whipping posts" in Maryland!
