Socialist.
Fascism is a form of socialism where government controls everything, but everything is privately owned. A good example is what we called Hillary care. Under Hillary care each doctor could own his private practice, but he was told how much he had to pay his employees, who he could see and how much he could charge, all under penalty of law. Yet, if his business failed, it wasn't the governments fault, since it was the doctors practice. This is how the fascist form of socialism works.
Under communism the state owns everything, under fascism the state owns nothing, it just controls everything.
Very interesting, D Rider! What comes to mind is the difference between slaves and employees. Slaves are completely controlled, but the owner must provide food, clothing and shelter and has an incentive to do so. Employees are “free,” but must suffer the consequences of downturns in the economy, etc. and the employer has no incentive to make sure the individual employee survives. If I understand what you’re saying, fascism would be happy with the slave situation as long as the government get its cut. Socialism, on the other hand, would like to arrange things so that the employers have more incentive to care for the employees, so they will all work harder and the government will get it’s cut.....
