The relationship between government and business would be very different because within a fascist state, big corporations were subservient to the government. They were still private entities, but the state was supreme. In a sort of modern fascism, the huge internationals are kind of above the government and so who serves who would be... well a different dynamic. It's a good question.

I think fascism is a very good idea, the whole idea of being patriotic, self sufficient and improving the nation for the benefit of the people. People need to remember fascism is different to Nazism Hitler destroyed the benefits of fascism.

Which fascist state would you say did it best then?

@TyphoidJerry: Parts of Nazi Germany like improving infrastructure and focusing on industry and building jobs for the people of the country and being more self sufficient. I haven't read up on much of the Italian fascism.

I'll level with you and say I'm about as anti-fascist as they come. Read up on Mussolini, Oswald Mosley, Pinochet, and Francisco to learn more. You can come to your own conclusions, but I generally see a force for evil there.

I'm not looking at the characters of fascism but more of the benefits it brings. I shall read into those people tho.
