Having a soeciety with laws that are enforced but not taught

Doesn't it seem odd that in countries like the United States, there are limitless Federal, state, local laws-with special rules governing each? Well perhaps that isn't odd for a "civilized" society to have such, but doesn't it seem odd that we are assumed to know and understand laws that we can be legally imprisoned for?
A child isn't just born with a library of law books as instinct, and even if one learns a law, if it is changed and they were informed of the previous law and not are susceptible to punishment, doesn't that seem very against the idea of freedom?
The best people to understand the laws are the ones that can use them against you (unless you have a lot of money to hire someone in your favor) and yet they can take your freedom and such because no one said it was illegal (whether wrong or not is something completely else).
Correct me if I am wrong, but the system seems pretty unfair to the average joe.

No one is hiding the law from you. Seek it out if you want to understand it. It may be complicated but that is just how some things are. Personally, I think our country could benefit from starting over with a clean slate on the governmental side of things but that is for another forum.
