...It's never not been like this. This is your country's core identity.
Independence was gotten not for "Freedom" but over capitalists' fury at the Stamp Acts. They wanted to keep as much of their profits as possible, even if it meant angering the British Empire.
The United States of America is, fundamentally, not a place in of itself, not a country, but a territory for wealthy people to live on and exploit.
It was that in 1776, through slavery, sharecropping, neoslavery, industrialization, trusts, the Marshall Plan, the Cold War, the tech boom, the rise of social media, and everything in between.
The country was founded by capital, for capital.
