Why do you say fascism?

If you said nationalism that would be pertinent, but I think a nation is a natural entity.

As regarding creating wealth, well sure in a society where there are no laws, that will lead to exploitation. A tendency for low paid workers and slavery exists if there is a large amount of physical work that need to be done. Hard Labour. If such work can be done by machines, as is the case these days, that is no longer the case.

"The people with a track record of creating wealth" can be a large cross section of society. I worked in a company where the shop floor had enough in their 401k accounts where they could be their own bank manager and take a loan out of their savings to buy a house. So yeah, they created wealth, and best people to manage that wealth.

It does start in society with something like, or akin to, Christianity and free speech. This translates into laws. This is the case with Common Law at least.

Currently, that is all being destroyed, as indicated in the video you are posting from.
