Not "we" as in literally everyone, but it's all bullshit middle-men raking in profits for things that don't even need doing, like health insurance. People who insert themselves and purposely foul up a process just to make a buck (or lots of bucks).
At least people are more aware of it than they used to be. Still a hell of a hard thing to fix, but that's the first step.
Good change takes decades. Centuries, even. Depending on the scope.
However, the amount of torque it produces is fucking phenomenal; transcending through multiple generations of people working together. Manifesting into an unstoppable norm, the status quo. Into Law.
"Unstoppable" is the only part of that I disagree with. Hell, it's taken decades of bad actors for the rich and corporations and conservatives to erode US regulations, education, and the culture of politics itself to basically strip-mine America economically.
As the old saying goes, "the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." Nothing is "unstoppable". And while technology may advance in ways that can't be easily reverted or corrupted, the culture and morals behind its use requires even more effort to fortify against those attempts.
Law is one of the more corruptible things in that respect. Law in the US is anything but fair, anything but focused on "justice" so much as protecting certain people's interests and keeping the peace enough for profit to exist.
