The Dems and the Reps differ, at least to some extent, on the which has more
rights: the individual or the corporation.  Both rely on the government to
enforce the protection of their particular preference.

Waiting to be savaged for suggesting that the Dems are really any different
from the Reps,

Subject: A great question

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!
