“The Fascist State lays claim to rule in the economic field no less than in others; it makes its action felt throughout the length and breadth of the country by means of its corporate, social, and educational institutions, and all the political, economic, and spiritual forces of the nation, organised in their respective associations, circulate within the State.”

This crap was all generated or created to combat the so called specter of internationalism communism and it was aided and abetted by the west which allowed the Fascists and Nazis to rise to power to combat the red scare of the October Revolution. Under the disguise of Benito and his prodigy Hitler corporations were allowed to take over their countries and democracy was extinquished. Sort of like that guy was he from General Motors who said, "What is good for big business is good for America". Yeah right!

WOW, Isn't that the mission statement emblazoned over all facets of current government (executive, judicial, legislative, and the media) in today's good ole USS of Amerika? If not, it should be! Waffler, I'm a little surprised at your rattings, your comment history would suggest that you were in support of the pragmatic implementation of today's quotes.

Sounds a lot like what Obama has planned for the U.S.

No Mike that is not the mission statement emblazoned over all facets of current government. Now you know, Get your head out of the sand. I don't think you know anything about my rating system and certainly nothing about pragmatism.

5 stars for the truth, thumbs down in support of it. Too funny, Mike. It is a shame Waffler cannot admit his own fascist leanings. It wouldn't be difficult to find among Waffler's comments to various founder quotes the exact same thing Benito is saying above -- hell, it is probably the one thing that both the Democractic Party and the GOP agree upon.

(-; Thanks Waffler, now my head is out of the sand and Poof, WOW, &*#@% - now I know ;-)
