Their agenda included minimum wage laws, government restrictions on profit-making, progressive taxation of capital and "rigidly secular" schools.

Is Thomas Sowell writing about the Democrats?  Well, perhaps.  In a way.  Some Republicans, too.

Also, the Italian Fascists of Mussolini:

The Fascists were completely against individualism in general and especially against individualism in a free market economy. Their agenda included minimum wage laws, government restrictions on profit-making, progressive taxation of capital and "rigidly secular" schools.

Unlike the Communists, the Fascists did not seek government ownership of the means of production. They just wanted the government to call the shots as to how businesses would be run. They were for "industrial policy," long before liberals coined that phrase in the U.S.

I hope and pray that this year's election in the U.S. will not be a choice between full-blown fascism (Democrats, either Hillary or Obama) and fascism-light (McCain Republicanism).
