So you thought all corporations were good! Fascism is on the march today in America. Millionaires are marching to the tune. It will come in this country unless a strong defense is set up by all liberal and progressive forces... A clique of U.S. industrialists is hell-bent to bring a fascist state to supplant our democratic government !

Holy Moly! None of the above applies to Corporate America!
Wow.
If indeed there was the interlinking of Corporate and State agendas as you see it, how did this entity lose the Midterm election?

Do you want to look corporate fascism right in the eye? Look no further than your precious welfare state, i.e., the federal government. http://theunjustmedia.com/Banking%20&%20Federal%20Reserve/The%20united%20states%20Of%20America%20%20is%20a%20corporation%20owned%20by%20foreign%20interests.htm

So, without reading the entire boring article, I think you Have proved my point that the government is bought and paid for by corporations both foriegn and domestic (I wonder what % China owns). Is not that what I've been telling you for these past weeks. Thats the exact reason we don't have a national health care plan, the exact reason! We need to take the Corporate out of Medicine! Facism: A blending of government and business!

That was the definition in '1945'. Modern interpretations have better explained it as I stated. It has morphed into a corporate government just as Vi has stated, although I think he stated it for different reasons than I. Also you have to look at the outreach of this government into almost every Nation that has something we want or need to see the extent of the corporate fascism!

There is no corporate fascism in any sense in existence in the US today.
To assert there is, distorts and defames the most successful wealth producing and life enhancing system yet devised by humanity.
With all of its warts and imperfections, it is still far superior to any alternative.
Free choice is what makes it so.

Monopolies are the weakest area of the current US system.

The US Govt is by far the most corrupt quasi corporate entity!

Corporate Fascism: when the government and corporations are as one entity, controlled with one interest, profit, for one class of people, the ruling class, with no consideration for their constituents (health care etc.) and a grand sense of Nationalism forced upon the people through Fear, to further their control and subjugation of their citizens! Wake up, It's here!!

Communism is an economic system whereby the State controls the means of production and the distrubution of goods and services.

Fascism is also an economic system whereby the State allows the illusion of private ownership with strict, dictatorial control over the means of production and the distribution of goods and services.

Communists and Fascists are nothing more than two rival gangs fighting over the same territory.

The alternative is free minds and free markets. And that is what we have here, for the most part, in the U.S.A.

Med and Dank ... you guys need to stop believing the lies. The far left would LOVE you to believe that our free market system is evil. They would just LOVE to solve your precieved problem.

Lying about what, Dank? Ummm ... lying about how if we would only turn over more of our production to them, they would solve the poverty problem? How if we would only raise the minimum wage, poverty would be a thing of the past? How if we would only tax the rich even more, we could attain Utopia?

Sheesh, Dank ... for a tall Texan, you sure believe a ton of BS.
One would think that you live in the hot Nevada sun, fer cryin' out loud! *lol*

Vi as far as the minimum wage is concerned, sure prices would go up slightly and that would be in the service industry. Yeah it may cost you a dollar more for a steak in a restaurant, but as a whole the prices wouldn't go up that dramatically. Remember that simple economics would not allow prices to go up more than the market can bare.

I just can't fathom you bitching about the price of a steak, or for that matter, carring if the minimum wage workers get a raise, unless you own a sweatshop, and then I could see your greed kicking in!

I was not saying that I was bitching about the price of a steak, I was saying that the only prices that would go up would be in the service industry such as restaurants... Go back and read very carefully.
