Are the differences between honors & regular classes as stark as I think? Is this a US thing?

How bad is the disparity between honors classes and regular classes in the US? If you have experienced both, do you think the regular curriculum is too basic? I was an honors student, and feel like I got a much better education than my peers in regular courses. My teachers were kind & invested and made class interesting. I was fully prepared for college. At the same time, I don’t feel like most of my honors peers were smarter than my peers in regular courses. It seemed like more of a way to enforce social class. Is the US education structure unique in this way?
