Interestingly, it’s actually fascism. Look at how Italy and Germany salvaged capitalism as it was crashing all around them - they artificially buoyed the big industrial companies and protected their stock prices so that the owning class could maintain the value of their portfolios.

No one: Literally no one: Not a single American soul: That’s communism!
