Every western country in the World has some socialism, i.e.,
government spending during bad economic times to soften
the impact on employment. So, someone always gets bailed out -g-
We still have a lot less
socialism than others. Obviously, that's an evil for the
economy, since it creates less efficient enterprises, but
since this evil exists everywhere, you can say it's a necessary
evil (to create jobs or slow down the shedding of jobs). Fascism is a political structure, which
has little to do with economic bailouts, but in the presence
of huge corruption the two go together. I don't think bailouts
imply fascism.
