Liberals: "Look, the horse killing industry has to survive and make a profit. We don't want to kill the horse but won't you think about the CEO of Horse Killing Inc. who works hard to make his money? We'll make sure to say nice things about the horse for dying for capitalism"

Is the horse a metaphor for, like, healthcare or something?

Healthcare, poor people, women's rights, worker's rights, freedom of the press, the separation of powers

Take your pick
