They really do have a lot of odd rules and personal regulations for a supposedly free country

I learned this after moving out of the US. I live in a third world country now and I feel more free here than I ever have in the US.

One example of this is that the traffic sucks here. Like its always crawling and slow, but the flip side is that you do not feel like you are constantly being hunted by police. Sometimes, not following the rules is what makes the most sense to reduce traffic and that is completely OK here.

There are many other examples, but off the top of my head that is what I thought of.
