For me: Cancelling paid subscriptions should be as easy as subscribing. I hate the fact that they actively hide the unsubscribe option or that you sometimes should have to write an e-mail if you want to unsubscribe.

I don't know how this works in the US, but where I live after a year subscription (let's say for your internet provider or something). They can only renew per month. So if the year subscription is over you can cancel any service every month and they can't hit you with any fees.

Back in the day if you'd forgot to cancel your plan you'd be stuck with them for another year. It sucked!

My car insurance goes up as my car loses value. Years ago you could choose to only insure it up to a certain amount. My kids drove an older car and i designated $10k in insurance for it. That cut the insurance price to about 60%. Texas no longer allows that.

Isn't most of the insurance for liability? I can see a logic where older cars are less safe, and thus accidents are more likely and would cost more, hence the higher costs. But I'm just guessing.

That actually is illegal.

What surprisingly is legal: dating a 14yo.

Weird country.

Interest based loans. It’s completely legal to use debt to kick the poor deeper into the gutter so that they can never stand up again.
