gollark: The problems I think are problematic are mostly stuff like "intellectual property is somewhat weird and broken", "pricing of some goods (housing, mostly) is weird too", "education frequently doesn't work as well as it should", "there are big technology/surveillance monopolies which are not good", and "government decision-making is pretty poor".
