Laura asks:
Is capitalism fascist? A genuine question. I'm not sure of the answer.
I'm not sure either but I suggest SIZE MATTERS: small business 'capitalism', before some businesses
become of a certain size---I know, how big?---does not have to be?
I'm thinking, historically, of small merchants and other companies in, say, a pre-industrial America, just
for a place to start talking......
But then, if some BIG DOGS came to own all the land................???
So, still thinking aloud here, the opposite of fascism, politically, is what? A kind of democratic individualism
in which all one's 'rights' are not violated, trampled on, overrun???
So, he continues giddily, out of semi-control here, maybe when capitalism's Companies became like Persons by
law....(They are, ya know)!!! Suddenly, Company Persons became Giant Adenoids, so to speak!
