What a load of ****. Obama may have some willing accomplices with a handful of corporations but he is an enemy of free enterprise and corporations.
Paul is playing class warfare games pitting people against business.
How long until Paul starts talking about how Jewish Bankers are the problem?
As much as I think Paul is a complete wingnut, he’s fairly accurate here. I don’t know that I would use the term corporatist, because they implies the corporations will have some control or input. I’d call him a fascist. Much like the fascists of yore, he is willing to let pet corporations use the government against competitors to make big profits as long as they did his bidding and support his party.
Obama really hasn’t nationalized much (GM is about it). In most cases he had just handed over things to corporations which he likes (or rather are willing to bribe him or his friends). He also gave handouts to those favored corporations. However those corporations clearly do his bidding.
For example, Obamacare was about coopting companies to do his healthcare mandate rather than government outright taking over health care. A socialist would have just done the outright takeover. Mind you he likely just looks at this as an intermediate step, but still for the moment he is no overt socialist.
