The Wire is the best TV show ever made. If you really want to understand the workings of American society from every perspective (the law, crime, politics, poverty, busness, and the media) and also grow close to a lot of the characters, this is the show for you
No.
It's a fucking phenomenal show, but it's not the best and it falls off hard at multiple points during the show. It's also incredibly dramatized (as TV shows show are), and provides hardly insight on how any of the things you've listed work in the real would
Once again, it's a great show and one of my favorites, but don't try and pretend it's anymore than it is. That'll just lead to disappointment amongst people who can use their brain.
