1 of 101 Truths You Were Never Taught

What large corporations discovered long ago was that the policing power of the state provides the missing link in maintaining their monopolies by using government to remove their pesky competition in the free market. So it is no surprise that these same large corporations endeavor at every opportunity to strengthen the hand of their government partner; whether you call it Socialism, Marxism or Communism or anything else does not matter. What matters is that the power of the state is ‘collectivized’ to capture the market consisting of the captured citizens. Of course the heads of these corporations are citizens too but most consider themselves citizens of the world without nationality and owe no allegiance to any country. The lack of prosecutions of blatantly illegal acts by these same ‘World Citizens’ represents empirical evidence that these ‘elites’ are truly above the laws that apply to everyone else. Thus, through collectivism of the populous and their close partnership with Government, we have today not free market capitalism but corporatism or crony capitalism or as Benito Mussolini called it Fascism.

There is nothing wrong with free market capitalism –capitalism is after all, an unstoppable force of nature– but when the markets are monopolized and controlled by large corporations with the help of the government, you no longer have free market capitalism; you have crony capitalism, which is a problem. We can witness crony capitalism at work on Wall Street, in Central Banking, Big Pharma, the Military-Industrial Complex and in other segments of the US economy … if we care to look.

“Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power.” — Benito Mussolini
