The buyers or sellers. No one is required to use a realtor. They simply provide a convenient service for a fee.

Tell me you have never bought a house in the US without telling me you have never bought a house in the US.
I've bought several houses in the U.S., and the last one I sold, I didn't have a realtor. I'm not sure what point you're making here.
That you have bought several houses in the USA makes your experience represent 0.01% of homeowners. Most people in the USA only buy one.
That's an odd accusation to make with confidence.
