The US is a capitalistic dystopian hellscape where every organization is a parasite trying to extract every dollar of rent it possibly can, regardless of what it does to the host. Without lawsuits, we'd all be serfs.

Civics education in the US is crap. We'd honestly be better off if we did teach these things in school.
