From the Wiki... "...Mussolini went on to claim that Fascism was the next logical step to solve the problems of supercapitalism and claimed that this step could be seen either as a form of capitalism or socialism which involved state intervention, saying "our path would lead inexorably into state capitalism, which is nothing more nor less than state socialism turned on its head. In either event, [whether the outcome be state capitalism or state socialism] the result is the bureaucratization of the economic activities of the nation."
It seems that the drive to nationalize the largest industries in the nation is grinding on, imposing Government rule (not just regulatory oversight), essentially doing exactly what Mussolini fomented in Italy prior to WWII. The bureaucratization of our banking system and the auto industry, along with the newly strengthened Federal oversight of many State projects which are getting cash from the big bailout is worth paying attention to. A couple of days ago the President said "You ain't seen nuthin' yet!"
Well, you had better start paying attention!
