Said it before, will say it again. *Any, ANY form of government can be
abused. Fascism may well appear to the man on the street to be no different
from Communism, but they are politcally diametrically opposite. The end
result to the citizen may be the same, but the players have different sets
of 'morals'. *Fascism is, in part, Capitalism taken to it's extreme. *Our
own Democratic Republic (USA, but isn't it funny how so many Communist
countries use those words in their proper names?) can be abused to the point
where it would, to practical intents and purposes, be no different than
either a Communist or Fascist dictatorship. Already, corporations have far
too much power and control over our government. *I'm all for "Joe the

You are correct on some accounts, but notice in Nazi Germany with
the big industries, although the original owners where still owners on
paper, and retained their titles, they now had to produce what they
were told to produce, they were told how much to produce, how much
they would get paid, and how much to pay the workers. You were
expected to meet government imposed quotas, just as in Communist
countries.
In Nazi Germany, you owned your company on paper, but you and your
company and your workers were totally controlled by the government.

If instead, you have the companys controlling the government, as
you say you are getting in the U.S., you have it turned around
backwards.

That was not the case in either Nazi Germany, or Communist Soviet
Union. There, the Government, (The Party) headed up by their Great
Leaders, had control.

Not much different then how business was run in the Soviet Union.
There, you had your factory committees and party comrades running the
factory. Totally controlled by the government again.
Again, totally controlled by the government. Everyone's lives
under total regulation.
To regular people, dictatorship is dictatorship. With their "Re-
education" Camps and Gulags and Concentration Camps.
What does it matter if it is black fascism, red communism, or
green or purple "ism" ? ?
No diff to me. All evil, and destructive to Liberty.
