Anyone heard about HR 1728

Just for point of reference. Here are the definitions of Fascism and Socialism as defined in the American Heritage Dictionary.

fascism
–noun A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.

socialism
–noun Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.

IIRC from my college Poli Sci classes – Fascism tends to favor corporations and corporatism at the expense of the citizens. Socialism tends to favor citizens at the expense of the corporations and corporate ownerships.

You guys & gals can argue about whether this is socialism or fascism.

I’d call it a kleptocratic oligarchy with no ideology other than keeping and gaining more power that employees any pragmatic approach that will help achieve their goals.

From an academic standpoint it definitely tips to the side of fascism which is essentially corporatism or the merger of state and corporations.

Looking at it through an ideological lens you can find what ever you want.

It’s just a bunch of very wealthy guys with politicians as the fall guys trying to keep shit from falling apart and doing a poor job at it I might add;)

The right is going to go ape shit over the next couple years as unemployment and bankruptcies mount and the state has to come in a do something.

Real unemployment is 20% and rising. You push that up to 30%+ and all the landless, jobless peasants will be begging for the state to step in.

Fascism, socialism, all mindless epithets in this context. I am more libertarian than anything else, but you’re not exactly laying out your case very coolly and objectively, socratt. Get rid of the opinions and labels and just lay out the actual facts. Maybe you’re right. I just can’t read past the hot air to see.

I have a small company that sells medical equipment. With the downturn in the economy, times have been really tough for us, so on the side we’ve been performing surgery as well. It’s been a great source of revenue, and we particularly enjoy doing those breast augmentations.

Now I’m told that we actually have to have a license for all of this. It would take me 6 or 8 years to go to medical school. I don’t have the time for that. And I hear those board exams are really tough!

We have always had to find a way to get creative and work with different customers, and the only way is structuring deals that have some sort of surgery involved. This just blows my mind. What scares me even more is that it has been around for a couple of decades and I just learned about it today!

Our government is sick and twisted and makes absolutely no sense. They are destroying what is left of the entrepreneurs. I can’t imagine this country can prosper without continuing to allow forward thinking. Obama and his clan are backwards!!
