The whole point of America is that it's every man for himself. The reason our ancestors traveled here was to get rich and be free. They did not immigrate here to work for "good of society." You can immigrate to Cuba if that's your goal. Personally, I am business for myself. The whole reason why human civilization advanced is because people wanted to advance their own self-interest. Think about it: some caveman invented a spear because he wanted to eat mammoths.
Individualism has nothing to do with freedom, it has to do with the right of some to exploit others. That by nature restricts freedom:
Real freedom exists in direct democracy, giving everyone an equal say. That is why the neanderthal formed societies based on mutual aid, it is human (and animal) nature to do so.

Direct democracy means 51% of the people can rightfully kill 49%. Strange definition of freedom.

Thankfully, we've evolved past caveman and not everyone shares your views. Social systems help the country as a whole, even you. Healthier, higher educated individuals lead to better workers and higher wages.

And gerrymandered or electoral college democracy means that 49% of the people can rightfully kill 51%. Strange definition of freedom. So much for the will of the people.

Cave men actually formed societies based on mutual aid, they didn’t follow the individualistic mindset.

They have no clue, that the USA was not created for the collective. Like all other nations.
The USA is unique. Nothing else like it. Nothing as powerful. Nothing as prosperous.
The more they try to make us like all the others, the less powerful and less prosperous we become.

Wrong again, the early man, just like ever mammal, formed groups the shared labor for the greater freedom of all.
