And I should add that capitalists love fascism. Not just German, but American, British, and French capitalists were happy to do business with Nazi-controlled Germany, because the Nazis not only supplied slave labour but also forced German workers to accept whatever wages they were offered rather than allowing collective bargaining. Some large American corporations were still running businesses inside Germany right up till the Americans finally entered the European theatre in WWII, and complained mightily when they were forced to stop doing so. Capitalism and fascism are a perfect fit if the capitalists have no ethics or morals. LC

In a FULLY capitalist country there is a separation of Economy and State just as in the US there is a separation of Church and State. Fascism is government regulation of the economy. Communism is government ownership of the economy. What exists today, worldwide, is increasing regulation or fascism. It's a mixed economy. The US was mostly capitalist in law until the Sherman Anti trust act of 1890. Since then, the US trend of government regulation/fascism has increased and accelerated. As far as the fact that most business do want regulation of their competitors, you are right. “Every nation gets the government it deserves.”--Joseph de Maistre and "Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." - H. L. Mencken I am one of the few people who are in favor of the separation of Economy and State the reasons of which are obvious in any days headlines.
