Fascism is not corporatism. That is an erroneous definition put out by people who hate Capitalism. Totalitarianism with a dash of Police State is more appropriate of a definition. The Big Bankers financed the Bolsheviks too, so let's get things in perspective.

The Adbusters team believes Western society has become too materialistic, and that so-called “unsustainable” consumerism is running rampant and ruining the Earth -- and our minds. They claim that big-name brands, feeding on our feelings of inadequacy, promise us better lives that they can’t deliver, leaving us instead with serious “mood disorders.”

the way things work on this planet is going after the people and the trillions they make that finance all that goodness and joy what you and most people call helping the less fornuate
i have every right to sit here and disagree with those who would destroy that system and other people to get what they want and its all about their wants. not their needs.edit on 1-10-2011 by neo96 because: (no reason given)
