This is the textbook definition of economic fascism.
It really is and one wonders how many US citizens understand this or how many students are taught such. Messerschmidt, Siemens, Focke-Wolfe, etc. all produced under control and authority of the Nationalist-Socialist government.

This is why the political terms of the Left and the Right are purposefully distorted to fit a particular political agenda, across the globe. And why the conservative movement, e.g. the Tea Party, needs to elevate its arguments to the most fundamental questions of governing.
I remember during the Soviet collapse the Media regularly referring to the losing Soviet Communists as the "conservatives," and remarking to my wife, Huhh?
And recall how the Republican Party before about 1990 was "blue" and the Democrats "red," then of a sudden in the Media it switched.
