Nationalizing industry was a back handed slap in the face to communism's form of socialism. Mussolini / Hitler's fascism form of socialism drew from America's corporatism where all legal persons (corporations, LLCs, etc.) are extensions of the State (a more expeditious form of socialism).

I would have normally given this a thumbs down but, it was so accurate I had to give it 5 stars.

Yes, national ID (www.unrealid.com, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REAL_ID_Act), continued loss of liberty, etc. It's unAmerican.

I agree with Mike; Hitler, though considered a mad-man, was a genius in controlling the masses. So much so that his techinques are still being adopted in America.

And that is exactly what 'federalism' is all about. War is the typical means to that end.

A purely awesome quote for a purely insane man, but then, isn't that the way it always is?

Great quote. He understood the power of socialism better than Stalin. Socialism can be powerful as long as you have a committed inspired population. That situation will only last as long as an inspiring leader is in charge. After that its ugliness will come to the surface and inspiration will leave. Socialism only gives power to the state.

Truth. Socialistic...just more so...gives a greater meaning with government control of the means of production and distribution...People are property in collectivism. Its all slavery.

Moshe Yanovskiy, Jerusalem

State intervention into baby room "to protect" children from the parents and public schools serving "for socialization not education" - the best Hitler could imagine - his ideas still alive and here is the real author...

What year/speech was this quote made in?

I don't understand this quote. You can't possibly nationalize the members of a nation unless they have an understanding of their vested interest in that nationalization, you simply can't nationalize without the industrial componential incorporation association. We must become aware of the step by step process, however.
