This is happening all the time; this approach is not a privilege of right-wing politicians. Of course we don't have a single dictator nowadays, we have quite a variety of lobbyists with a major influence on politics (the "Fifth Estate"). Has anyone noticed yet that the "anti-terror laws" issued after 9/11 are most beneficial primarily for the music and movie industry? Luckily, for most U.S. citizens "freedom" boils simply down to the right to carry and fire a gun. No need to worry about other aspects of "freedom"!
