Shocking Fascism Definition as it Relates to America

      "Fascism is capitalism plus murder."
                                     -- Upton Sinclair

      "Under the species of Syndicalism and Fascism there appears for the first time in Europe a type of man who does not want to give reasons or to be right, but simply shows himself resolved to impose his opinions."
                                     -- Jose Ortega y Gasset

Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power."
                                     -- Benito Mussolini

“The history of mankind is a history of the subjugation and exploitation of a great majority of people by an elite few by what has been appropriately termed the 'ruling class.' The ruling class has many manifestations. It can take the form of a religious orthodoxy, a monarchy, a dictatorship of the proletariat, outright Fascism, or, in the case of the United States, corporate statism. In each instance the ruling class relies on academics, scholars and 'experts' to legitimize and provide moral authority for its hegemony over the masses.”                                  
                                    -- Ed Crane

How Fascism Will Come To America (1935)
A Slightly modified version of Sinclair Lewis'

"When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag, waving the cross, and preaching free markets.”
