"the government controls..."
"A central planning authority directs..."
But sometimes isn't it the other way around with Fascism? ie corporate or money interests have great influence over the government and influence it so as to increase the power of the corporate influencer? It seems more like with fascism it's hard to tell the difference between the government and the moneyed interests (be they corporations, companies, extremely wealthy individuals, etc.) because they're so intertwined.
- dfxm12 6y agoIt's certainly hard to tell with the current US administration, since the government and moneyed interests are the same: https://www.citizen.org/article/corporatecabinet/ https://www.citizen.org/article/corporatecabinet/ I do think the key here is that the government doesn't have to cave to moneyed interests, but a fascist leader does (either because they're weak, complicit or some other reason).
