In 1944 as World War II raged, Henry Wallace (FDR’s Vice President from 1941 to 1945) penned an article in the New York Times about the dangers of American Fascism. Wallace warned of the American Fascist’s deliberate perversion of truth and fact, monopolistic extortion, appeal to prejudice and fear while paying lip service to democracy, intolerance towards the “other,” evasion of laws designed to protect the public good, elevation of money and power before the welfare of human beings to feed insatiable greed. With the exception of right wing isolationism, the piece could have been written today. Give it a read and draw your own conclusions.

Henry A. Wallace’s Warning of American Fascism

Fascism is a worldwide disease. Its greatest threat to the United States will come after the war, either via Latin America or within the United States itself.

The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact. Their newspapers and propaganda carefully cultivate every fissure of disunity, every crack in the common front against fascism. They use every opportunity to impugn democracy. They use isolationism as a slogan to conceal their own selfish imperialism. They cultivate hate and distrust of both Britain and Russia. They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.

Several leaders of industry in this country who have gained a new vision of the meaning of opportunity through co-operation with government have warned the public openly that there are some selfish groups in industry who are willing to jeopardize the structure of American liberty to gain some temporary advantage. We all know the part that the cartels played in bringing Hitler to power, and the rule the giant German trusts have played in Nazi conquests. Monopolists who fear competition and who distrust democracy because it stands for equal opportunity would like to secure their position against small and energetic enterprise. In an effort to eliminate the possibility of any rival growing up, some monopolists would sacrifice democracy itself.

Dem voters must come out in the huge numbers they are certainly capable of to get rid of the malignant cancer in The White House. And that goes for the Senate as well!

Funny how someone that supported a mandate to buy a product or pay a fine calls others fascists.

I don't think it's that big a problem yet, because in my judgment Trump isn't serving anything beyond his own ego. But if his constant lying, hostility to opposition, and mass of dumb followers - all hallmarks of fascism - permanently change the political climate, then someone smarter and more focused could take over and make use of it. And that would be a problem.

The facts do not support your hyperbolic lies. Trump has done far more for Americans than the eight years of Obamunsim we suffered with. :rolleyes:

If anyone had a fragile ego, it's the Democratic Party leadership and Obama. Those morons can't accept that they lost.

You're going to lose shit-for-brains. I am hoping it pushes you over the edge to suicide. I really, really am. I am hoping the whole cabal of evil, lying, hateful leftist assholes follow suit.
 
Ah yes, Henry A. Wallace. This is the same guy who was given a tour of labor camps in Magadan and Kolyma, and upon not realizing the tour was sanitized, believed that the workers were "volunteers."

The U.S. economy headed into 2020 on a solid footing, with growth settling back to the roughly 2% pace that has prevailed during the decade-old economic expansion.

Amazing! How does he do it?

Beats the 1.40% GDP malaise and high unemployment of the Obama years. How did he do it?

GDP has averaged 2.57% under Trump. I don't know where you get that 2% figure. But if this is bad, Americans want MORE of it. ;)

Here's a graph of US GDP 1990-2019 (can't copy it here, sorry):

Can you spot where the stable genius took over?

There is no democracy currently in the world. The United States is organized as a federated republic. It is not a democracy. It never was.
Monopolies are self destructive. It is capitalism that destroys it.
