Do you feel that our laws are outdated and our society is not functioning right?
Do you feel it fair that if it’s not broken for majority, it’s not broken at all?
Do you think it needs fixing and if yes, how?

something is always broken; we should be having an ongoing debate how to make things better.
once you start settling, you start becoming complacent - and controlled.

There is definitely a lot fo fixing required when it comes to the law. For one, there's a city that has a law prohibiting the eatign of ice cream on sunday. Go figure eh.
But aside form the trivial, any society that wants to purport to be free and equal needs to review and amend all laws that are prejudicial for or against any identifiable group. Sure we need laws to deal with murderers, rapists and others who totally commit offences against people but when it comes to which washroom to use or where to sit on a bus or who you can marry, then any law is a bad law.

My country has a lot of fixing to do in terms of the law. I believe the law should not just cater to the majority, but also look at the needs of the minority, and evolve its legal schema accordingly.

I don't know in you country, but here in Brazil, our constitution starts by saying that law is equal for everyone, regardless religion, sex, racial origin, and so on. Unfortunately our law protects politicians too much. That because they make laws to be benefit ted by them.

it's not the law. it's the people. clearly people can not follow EASY rules. so no, it's not broken...the only thing that's needs to be fixed are people.
