2)  What makes us "lucky" is the fact that many men and woman before us had a spine much bigger and stronger than yours to build and achieve so much more than any other nation in the world.  The prosperity that we enjoy is often taken for granted by leftist democrats like you including the economic prosperity that we enjoyed prior to the China virus.

Good questions.
1) it's an election year.  I don't want CEOs telling me who they're voting for. A CEO should simply care so much about his brand and customers that he doesn't want to risk alienating half his customer base while people are fired up.

2) yes, private ambition is one of the necessary ingredients to our greatness.  I assume most Latin American countries have their own entrepreneurs. I think itd be a bit racist to assume otherwise.  If your country isn't stable, or if it has a corrupt and counterproductive government, it doesn't matter how many entrepreneurs you have. When you have functioning democratic elections, you can get rid of your corrupt or counterproductive government.   

By the way, thanks for insulting my courage and misattributing my party affiliation again.  A person with no spine would just avoid engaging arrogant horse anuses like you, of course, so I've obviously got plenty of spine.  And I help my wife fulfill her dream, where she has a small profitable business with two employees. So I might know more than you about ambition also.
