The government should not be able to use the businesses to do their dirty work.

What do we call it when the government controls the means of production?

Go ahead. Say it. Its okay.

Xone, so right! Could also be Fascism. Not much difference between the two.

Government control of Business
Government control of Industry
Government control of Media and the Press
Government control of Education
And forcible suppression of dissent!

Of course that is the 1910 Websters College Dictionary definition. They were clearer about these things at the time.

Mussolinism. Well, Ok, I made that up, but he was in on the scam. Found himself a nice lamppost later in life, as I recall.
