If America is not Fascist, what is it? A Democracy? Hardly. A Republic? Not anymore.
"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini.
It is an old, over used quote, but we think that Benito understood the concept.
We bailed out the banks that were "too big to fail" after they got greedy and made a ton of speculative trades. So we were worried that the banks might not have the money we put into them, so we had to guarantee that money (that we gave to them) with more of our own money. Think about the duplicity of that. With the bailout, in the best case, we were paying ourselves our bank balances out of our tax revenue. But that is not what happened, since the banksters instead made more speculative trades, and gave away record breaking bonuses, since the year was so financially successful.
Tricked, coerced, and threatened into guaranteeing your own bank balance. Paying them to make sure they still have the money you already paid them and they lost.
Show me where the American Feds begin and WalMart and Wall Street end.
Thanks,
