How are some individuals (mostly from the left) so outraged when libertarians classify this economy/country as technically fascist? The government is currently running a large number of companies and industries either outright or indirectly. To name just a few - the postal service, Amtrak, GM, the coinage of money, the majority of the banking sector (indirectly through the Fed), the court system, national defense, scientific research, education, healthcare, most utility companies, and I'm sure I could go on and on. In addition, and just in case you do not get enough government in your daily life, Obama has given us a plethora of "Czars" to obey. Here is a list of a few:
Energy Czar: Carol Browner
Urban Czar: Adolfo Carrion, Jr.
Infotech Czar: Vivek Kundra
Faith-based Czar: Joshua DuBois
Health reform Czar Nancy-Ann DeParle
New TARP Czar Herb Allison
Stimulus accountability Czar Earl Devaney
Non-proliferation Czar Gary Samore
Terrorism Czar John Brennan
Regulatory Czar Cass Sunstein
Drug Czar Gil Kerlikowske
Guantanamo closure Czar Daniel Fried.
