I have the book here on my shelf. The Corporate State by Benito Mussolini; published by Vallecchi Publishers, Florence 1938.

It is a compendium of speeches he gave and resolutions drafted by the government.

One of the most outspoken critics of Roosevelt was life long liberal and columnist for The New Republic, John Flynn. His books The Roosevelt Myth and Country Squire in the White House expose FDR for what he was. An excerpt:

While at the same time proclaiming his devotion to democracy, he [Roosevelt] adopted a plan borrowed from the corporative state of Italy and sold it to all the liberals as a great liberal revolutionary triumph. And, curiously, every American liberal who had fought monopoly, who had demanded the enforcement of the anti-trust laws, who had denied the right of organized business groups, combinations and trade associations to rule our economic life, was branded as a Tory and a reactionary if he continued to believe these things. p.83, Country Squire in the White House.

Flynn predicted that Roosevelt's spending on vast domestic programs could not continue. He said Roosevelt would turn to preparations for war in order to solve his dilemma, because the extravagance of the administration had reached the point of no return.
