The definition of Socialism is a planned economy. Hitler had a planned economy, case closed. The reason people think that Nazism wasn't Socialism is because they think of Socialism in an emotional sense, not a real sense, they think Socialism means helping the poor and being nice. In which case Hitler was not a Socialist, but neither was any government in world history.

Wealthy states oftentimes become corporatocracies rather than staying as true democracies. People like Bush give more power and benefits to their wealthy friends on Wall St. while the rest of us suffer or are ignored. Wealthy special interests impede the democratic process and will of the people. Opposition to campaign finance reform only further distorts democracy by letting Big Money control the elections, not the people. Money shouldn't be an issue in an election!

Socialism doesn't HAVE to be anti-freedom. In fact, it promotes freedom and democracy by making workers equal in the company and letting them vote. They don't have that kind of power in a society like America's. They only have limited power as consumers and not much as workers. Execs. can cut pay, lay them off, and cut benefits whenever they want, regardless of what the workers want. Workers are the backbone of a company and deserve fair and equal treatment. Is that fair?

who says capitalism has to be free? during the cold war we put up countless coutnries that were completely capitalist but murdered hundreds of thousands of their own people. freedom is not measured by capitalism. during FDR's stay american companies were puting plans together to do the same thing here. maybe one day they'll get around to it.

Definition of Fascism - that nation which is ruled by corporation and for the benefit of it, through allocation of all wealth and resources for the Corporation. the Corporation is the STATE. Often a single leader with absolute executive powers known as a Dictator is integral but sometimes a governing legislature may exist atleast symbolically even if it has no authority. Absolute Corporate Monopoly (Corporate Communism) --Extreme Capitalism that extinguishes itself by becoming a Monopoly
