Here is the truth: Leftist/liberal/progressive politicians, aided by the pathetically ineffective Republican party, long ago destroyed American capitalism and replaced it with an advanced welfare state, with massive government regulation strangling virtually every aspect of economic activity and invading virtually every aspect of our private lives.
It is freedom and individual rights that are now devalued -- it is the man of ability, the man of reason, the man of competence, the man of creativity and innovation that is devalued -- devalued and sacrificed to the irrational, the lazy, the shiftless, the worthless, the good-for-nothing, those who have never done a decent days work and never intend to. It is the triumph of "need" over justice.
