IMHO freedom in US is usually in fact 1) free for people who have $$ or 2) poor people who advocates for 1) for whatever the reason.

Basically freedom means less regulation from governments, which is only good for super riches and large enterprises. If you are not you should welcome more government regulation to counter the other elephant in the room. Two evils is always better than one.

Freedom is for everyone given that you stay out of the limelight and don't have something someone else more rich and powerful wants to take.

Yes, regulation is often pushed to protect the peasants from the aristocrats, to protect workers from the capitalists but by far not always: Regulation is also pushed to manifest the power of the powerful ... which means there are also freedoms for the weak to protect.

It is a centuries long battle to find the balance in always changing times.

Amazing how the US is in knee-deep sh*t and Americans are still downwoting people when they say what you said...
