Beware of Greeks Blogging Gifts

I found the aforementioned quote RE fascist economies:

Indeed we will have to suffer greater losses before people wake up…

A fascist economy is a permanent war economy, even in “peacetime”…

I strongly recommend Friendly Fascism, The New Face of Power In America by Bertram Gross, exposing the big-business big government connection. The citizens united ruling makes complete sense in the context of a fascist economy…

My point is that Keynesian policy did work and can work again. The facts are there; it was in 1934 that Sweden became the first country to fully recover from the Great Depression. Why does everyone ignore Sweden’s success with Keynesian deficit spending? In fact, Germany, Britain and the USA engaged in deficit spending for war.

Referring to Sweden;”their Keynesian policy alone would have been unsustainable” this remark is of course false as all retro logic is false due to the fact it is unverifiable…

Interesting comments, all…The corporate influence is everywhere…I believe fascism to be the true nature of America…I read -the writer’s name escapes now-that a fascist economy is a permanent war economy even in peace time.
This is for me striking as the Great Depression was ended by the war…but it was a guns or butter scenario, with Sweden being the first nation to deficit spend her way out of the GP, on butter. While nazi germany was second out of the GP by deficit spending on guns, followed by britain and then the US also on guns.
We find in 2010 the same dilemma, do we continue to spend on guns?
The Military Industrial complex has a death grip on all of us…fascists need to have “anti regime” conspiracies to rally the troops…

Here’s an old quote I feel is apropos:

Last night I followed the anti tr0ll advice in this post. I had put up a dozen Groucho Marx quotes because a tr0ll post was stuck on top. This morning I found a tr0ll response:

groucho quote:
Anyone who thinks there’s safety in numbers hasn’t looked at the stock market pages.

a tr0ll called buck carson responded:
Anyone who thinks there is safety in government hasn’t lived.

Can you say ID10T?

I had a good laff…thanks Planet POV!
