A Lesson For Trumpers

To say that Trump's disciples are stupid, crazy and ignorant is an understatement. They are also pigheaded and immune to logic and facts. They are too evil to realize that the people running this country are not the prick lickers in Washington DC. The American government is owned by the ruling class. The ruling class is the billionaire corporate class. You congressman, be he or she Republican or Democrats serves their donors.Agencies such as the FDA are owned by the industries that they pretend to regulate. If the Trump mob were to figure that out, they would storm the corporate offices and thje homes of the ruling class and execute every last one of them. The rest of us would take a more civilized approach and have them brought to the courts and tried for their crimes. But maybe America has passed the point of no return? Our courts are corrupt and the filthy rich are rarely brought to justice. Maybe something like the French Revolution is the only hope for America. Maybe America needs a purge? Maybe if there is a war between the Trump mob and the oligarchy enough of them on both sides will be killed off so that America will be purged of this evil. The Trump mob is the lesser of the two evils.

Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power." ~Benito Mussolini~

 

Corporate statism, state corporatism, or simply corporatism is a political culture and a form of corporatism - closely related to fascism - whose adherents hold that the corporate group which forms the basis of society is the state. The state requires all members of a particular economic sector to join an officially designated interest group. Such interest groups thus attain public status, and they participate in national policymaking. As a result, the state has great control over the groups, and groups have great control over their members.^[1]

As with other political cultures, societies have existed historically which exemplified corporate statism, for instance as propounded by Othmar Spann (1878-1950) in Austria and implemented by Benito Mussolini (1883-1945) in Italy (1922-1943) and by António de Oliveira Salazar's Estado Novo in Portugal (1933-1974).^[2].

Corporate statism most commonly manifests itself as a ruling party acting as a mediator between the workers, capitalists and other prominent state interests by institutionally incorporating them into the ruling mechanism. Corporatist systems were most prevalent in the mid-20th Century in Europe and later elsewhere in developing countries. According to this^[which?] critique, interests, both social and economic, are so diverse that a state cannot possibly mediate between them effectively through incorporating them.^{[citation needed]} Social conflicts go beyond incorporated dichotomies of labor and capital to include innumerable groups. Furthermore, globalization presents challenges, both social and economic, that a corporate state cannot sufficiently address because these problems transcend state borders and approaches.^{[citation needed]} Corporate statism therefore differs from Corporate nationalism in that it is a social mode of organization rather than economic nationalism operating through private business corporations.
