Bush Clears the Way for Corporate Domination

Corporatism is just another word for fascism, according to Mussolini, who should have known well about such things. I am sure Old Benito would have been in hogs heaven in the midst of today's corporate criminals.

AlterNet: Bush Clears the Way for Corporate Domination:

"When George W. Bush says that he wants to spread freedom to every corner of the earth, he means it.

But of course the president that turned Soviet-era gulags into secret CIA prisons in order to do God-knows-what to God-knows-whom isn't talking about individual freedom. He means corporate freedom -- freedom for the great multinationals to extract everything they can from the world's resources and labor without the hindrance of public interest laws, environmental regulations or worker protections.

Bush's vision of a free world actually looks just like the corporate globalization agenda pushed by a succession of American presidents in institutions like the World Trade Organization."
