Can you provide one piece of credible evidence for anything? Quotes from political leaders are irrelevant to the topic. Even if Mussolini said "America is a fascist state" it STILL would be irrelevant, as the fact that he asserted it does not necessarily make it true.

If Private interests are allowed to print the world exchange currency, and leading petro-dollar, out of thin air, that is not public. If the economic system of an entire country is not run to benefit that country, but as a private enterprise for profit, that may affect the quality of life of the citizens of said country.
Wow. You really have no idea how the Federal Reserve actually works. I'd refer you to a site, but it's easier if you just took an Intro to Macroeconomics class.
Fascism is the direct OPPOSITE of what you state America to be. Fascism does not condone or endorse private enterprise and frowns upon individualism.

Evidence? I'll assume you know what that word means.

Now I'm absolutely certain you've never taken an economics course and understood the material. Globalization is a natural function of the market's technological advancements and a direct result of comparative and competitive advantage between countries with similar resources. It has numerous upsides, not to mention the enormous opportunities available to those that explore new markets in different regions.
This is fucking rich. America is a fascist state because of globalization and free trade.
Ho-lee shit.
