: Don: Socialism is the public ownership of industry. What you are discussing is fascism. Government control of industry and the economy. It is "fascism with a friendly face", but fascism nontheless.

SDF: Again, DonS defines to confuse. Government subsidy is not fascism, it does not require jackbooted thugs for the Fed to regulate interest rates or for Congress to keep sugar producers financially afloat. Go read Mussolini's Fascism, Don, discover how the real historical Fascists defined themselves.
