Well when they back away from a socialist health plan, they resort to a federally funded and controlled health plan provided by insurance companies. That would not be socialist, but fascist.

Hugh, you are simply using terms like "socialist" and "fascist" as rotten tomatoes. I gather you don't like the Dems. I get the point.

Well, that's progress, I guess. <g>

But "fascist" is a lame epithet, too. I already fed you "statist." What's wrong with that one? It's the most apt, I think. Or you might try "collectivist" or "anti-capitalist." Perhaps "rent-seeking" or "authoritarian." They are at least in the neighborhood. "Fascist," not by quite a stretch.
