Profit. Profit. And more profit. The profit of corporations here in the US is the most important pursuit by government, even when it comes at the expense of jobs or even human lives. Nothing will stand in its way. If you take a closer look at why we have the worst of the worst ideas implemented in the worst way, you'll see it's because someone or some corporation is making a ton of money at the expense of everyone else. This is not an inherent property of capitalism, it's how the US chose to implement its version. Put simply, humans are second-class entities in this system and only the profits of the rich/corporations are first-class entities. When you put this idea into a country built on war, colonialism (carried out towards others), slavery, and oppression, the current status quo should not be surprising.
