Quote:Right on, Peter! Thanks for your expanded comments on the steps toward Fascism in this country. People, young and old, need to know these things to understand what is happening and to not be fooled by all the advertising and propaganda about the "friendly fascism" lurking behind the US flag. And thank you for recommending the book, Friendly Fascism. I shall look for it.

I'm not sure if the entire book is available on the internet [it is possible], but I know that some parts of it are on the website here.
Amazon is selling the book, I see, and it seems it may be on Google Books too....hmmm...and he has lots on Rockefeller you might enjoy! And page 170 is an interesting table comparing 'classical' fascism with 'friendly' fascism. I read the book when it came out. RayGun was our first openly friendly fascist President in the recent era...but we had others before my time.
