    This is expected. A hallmark of fascism is state capitalism — a fusion of the corporation and the state — with corporations administered more like org units of the fascist party.

    Many of us have been saying that this is the natural end state of capitalism all along, if it’s allowed to run its course.

      Problem is that it’s hurting the economy, meaning that if your hypothesis is right, capitalism collapses rather quickly if left on it’s on devices.

          Yeah that’s exactly what I mean. It’s the best example that state capitalism is extremely destructive and cannibalizing the economy.

        Yeah, but you just distract the idiots with “illegal” immigrants, and abortion, and perceived “enemies within”, etc. etc.

        It works every single time.

          It only ever works for a decade or two before it obliterates the economy every single time.
