It may smack down your rugged individualism, but it helps the village get through the winter. We can all gain, and are stronger for having defined boundaries of good behavior. As a nation we all have to move together in one direction to thrive and survive, or fall to our own inefficiency. My gosh, the reality of uniting 360 million people requires the co-operation of all of them, and for whatever reason the right is against that, I respectfully submit the notion of returning to the good old days of a few million people mostly Euro, white christians having there complete way, and subjugating others to their standard, are not feasible, or sustainable.
What part of equal and fair are you afraid of? Why are you ignoring and dismissing those that don't agree with you? Why can't you compromise?
It appears to me that you have a single minded goal of how everyone should live, think, and act, that preserves your own superiority, and suggests everyone else inferiority. Sorry, that's not reality.
