No more government control is more a step toward fascism then a step away. It may be a tiny step with large benefits that leave you very far from fascism and with a better overall situation, but its silly to call ideas that call for less government control, and thus oppose the step, "fascism".

In this case its not a step that has large gross benefits, or any net benefits, so its not a justified tiny step toward fascism.

LS,
Nope, fascism is about control by a dictator/strongman, who is often either kept in power by the military and/or a small group of wealthy industrialists. The type of control I advocate keeps all this in check and benefits the 99%.
Kim Jong-Un keeps his military and wealthy industrialists in check and benefits the 99%.

You know this is true because he wins every election with 99% of the vote. (Don't ask what happens to the other 1%.)
