What we have in the US right now with the revolving door between the Pentagon and defense contractors or the FDA and Big Pharma or the Intel agencies and Big Tech, or the Treasury Dept/the Fed and Big Banks, etc etc.....with the government and big business being in bed together and doing each other's bidding. That is called "corporatism". That is literal fascism.
We need to not only fire a bunch of bureaucrats and abolish some entire federal agencies, root out the corrupt/bd actors in those bureaucracies and bust up the Big Tech monopolies, we also need to pass laws that ban government employees from working for companies in the industries they regulate/oversee for a number of years after they leave government service. We have to smash that link between the two.

Our most recent fascist, Obama, forced us to purchase products from private companies: Health Insurance.
