The problem with "just being left alone" is that's how you get a company like Google killing off your local paper by taking all of their ad revenue. It's how free trade allows companies to outsource big chunks of manufacturing to people in countries with no labor protections and very low minimum wages, instead of investing in modernizing American manufacturing. It's how corporate execs at Boeing decide to build a crap plane like the 737 MAX instead of designing a plane that can carry modern fuel efficient engines, so the execs can boost their immediate profits and collect on stock-based bonuses. It's how various industries become natural monopolies that eventually abuse their customers.
The problem with Democratic politicians, and liberals in general, is that we spend more time talking about land acknowledgements than these economic issues.
