Re: Now we really are fascist
Honestly I think if America was ever ripe for violent revolution... it will be within the next 4 years. Thats absolutely ridiculous, I don't know whether to call it fascist, or communist. Taking out the leaders, just waiting for collectivization.
Re: Now we really are fascist
Meh, it's not the first time it happened and it's not the last. Government involvement in business happens a lot. Considering the Fed is throwing billions at these companies, I think it's good that they are getting involved (I would have preferred that they let them fail though). I think people are overreacting a bit. The government has actually done some good in situations like these in the past. The government creation of Conrail actually turned out pretty well and actually earned a profit for the taxpayer.
I'll take a wait-and-see approach.
