    There is a very interesting take on this by @pluralistic in his novel “the bezzle”, which illustrates the absurdity of this concept of laws. It seems nearly impossible for laypeople in the US to grasp an understanding of the laws applicable to a certain situation (and it can become quite costly to collect that intel).

    PS: In Germany it is still difficult to really understand the language of laws (and lawyers), but one can look it all up.
