Have 'Real Individuals' in Democracy been transformed into 'products' of Capitalism?

Have Real Individuals in Democracy been transformed into 'products' of Capitalism? If the Freedom and Equality of the Individual is being ignored ( by 'permissive' racial discrimination; low wages; 'assaults' against 'Other Races' by Immigration policies; and 'Border Fences'; Taxation inequality; 'oppressive' law enforcement) while the Corporations get stronger, bigger, and the 1% increases incrementally into a higher class, 2%, 3%, 20% or higher!; the answer is Yes! Economics has taken over Democracy. The Individual has become a 'Product' in the eyes of a Government. What has happened to Freedom and Equality? Government 'Offices' have been filled by 'Individuals' who have no 'respect' for the 'sameness' of the Human condition, that is, the 'Freedom and Equality' of 'each and every Real Individual' at the Bottom of Government. 'Government power' is now used to make a Profit and is 'operated' by the 1%. Freedom and Equality of the Individual has been sacrificed for the freedom and equality of the 1%; the Corporate Society; the 'fictitious Persons' created by a Branch of Government itself. The Courts have created an 'economic monster' and now do not know what to do with it. Its really simple: you created an economic person, or a Legal Fiction, that has taken over Government; give that creation more Democratic duties, i.e. make it respect the 'Freedom and Equality' of 'all' Real Human Beings. After all, Corporations owe their very existence to the fact that they 'live' in a Democracy. Try having a Corporation 'take over' a Dictatorship within which it was allowed to function. Won't happen. In such a case, the Dictatorship owns the Corporation, or, it won't exist. Where's the Freedom and Equality? When the 'Economy' begins to 'understand' that the 'corporate motor', profits, also needs 'Freedom and Equality', it 'may begin' to understand that Freedom and Equality is a 'Democratic Political value'. You cannot have a Democracy without 'People'; and you can't even have a Corporation( a Legal Fiction) without a 'Real Individual' 'operating' it, and you can't have 'Freedom and Equality' without Democratic Political values. Sacrifice Greed!
