  • Having worked on local issues such as homelessness I can tell you that it is not a both sides issue much like most politics in the US. You have the progressives that are using evidence and best practices to deal with problems and you have conservatives who just want them out of the community.

    That is why you are so funny to me, because you lack any real world experience and you think all sides are the same.












  • I have studied the American revolution with a critical eye and I can definitely tell you that the “founding fathers” were the very definition of corporatism. They also ticked off all the bad things people usually associate with fascism as well. I go off Mussolini’s definition of fascism as opposed to scholars who don’t want believe their country is fascist.

    Viking, 90% of all policies in every nation in the world are written by corporations. We live in a corporatocracy which is arguably the natural result of corporatism in the modern world.

    I think you are imagining capitalism as the mythical “small business capitalism” when in reality it always leads to concentration of power hence the reality we live in. You can prove me wrong by showing me a capitalist practicing nation that doesn’t have an ever increasing wealth gap.

    Capitalism leads to corporatism that leads to a corporatocracy. I also don’t buy into the “keeping it in check” belief that tries to condition us that capitalism will work under the right circumstances.

    Of course it will work, by concentrating power leading to fascism like it already has. It will never be regulated into small business capitalism because that is just the larval stage.
