America has a legal system made by lawyers for lawyers of lawyers.

"Ignorance of the law is no excuse..." is something said by a now dead and very naive man. When the "law" expands to something way beyond the ability of an average person to know and understand, you get carte blanche for abuse by both government and by corporations with legal teams.

In the Wild West, you bring a gun. In wild America, you bring a lawyer because all the other assholes are using them as weapons.
