Plenty of countries do it. It's a misnomer to call it capitalism. It's fascism: nominal private ownership with defacto government control in different potential ways (e.g. force backed barriers to competition, regulation boosting costs, etc.)
- kolbe 3y agoI think that's why Crony Capitalism has a very specific meaning different from Capitalism. Modifiers make a difference. For example, National Socialism and Socialism are very dissimilar.
- RagnarD 3y agoNational Socialism is a type of socialism and the National Socialist party platform is overtly socialist in every way if you want to look it up in historical documents. The ludicrous idea that they were "right" was a crude smear from the communists who were merely trying to undercut a competing gang. A smear even more ludicrously carried forward to the present day by the staggeringly ignorant.
- slater 3y agoNational Socialism is socialist in the same sense that the DPRK or the GDR are/were democratic.
