>>That is one weird philosophy-lol.

I guess, coming from a closet Fascist like yourself, I should be honored.

And YES.. you are a Fascist.. Look up Mussolini's definition of Fascism (bringing the resources of the private sector to the benefit of the state) and you'll see how close your beliefs mirror his.

Fascism: nonsense:

Last I looked a government controlled by the people is a democracy. You just do not like this government, so you engage in name calling using words like facism. In a dmeocracy the losing side is always upset, but seldom bashes the other party by all of a sudden calling the winner, the peoples choice, facsist.

How do you think we won WWII? Our government. We are the government in a democracy, and we enlisted the resouces of our nation to combat Hitler and Japan. That is what every nation did. There is no other way to do it and win.

So you do not think our government should mobilize our scientists to protect us from China, Russa and Pakistan??

We wasted three trillion dollars and our military on Iraq which was no threat to us, and who was a much greater threat to Europe who would have had to deal with them eventually.

In the meantime we took our eye off of China, Russia, Pakistan and Iran which are real threats to us.

I would say the last eight years came closer to a fascist state than anything going on in our history.

It is the job of our government to keep us safe by mobilizing a smart military when needed.

Fascism:

is a radical and authoritarian nationalist political ideology.[1][2][3][4] Fascism is also a corporatist economic ideology.[5] Historians and political scientists disagree on a precise definition, however; some would omit one or more of the preceding themes [6], while others would add many more.[7] Fascists advocate the creation of a single-party state.[8] Fascists believe that nations and races are in perpetual conflict whereby only the strong can survive by being healthy, vital, and by asserting themselves in combat against the weak.[9] Fascist governments forbid and suppress criticism and opposition to the government and the fascist movement.[10] Fascism opposes class conflict and blames capitalist liberal democracies for creating class conflict and in turn blames communists for exploiting class conflict.[11]

Following the defeat of the Axis powers in World War II and the publicity surrounding the atrocities committed during the period of fascist governments, the term fascist has been used as a pejorative word.[12]
