I Fucking Told You Krasnov Was A Socialist/Communist

Krasnov bought a 10% stake in Intel, bought another stake in a Canadian mining company.

Now Krasnov is looking at controlling as many as 7 private industries which includes mandating what these private industries can charge for their products. He wants America to be competitive by lowering workers' wages seeing as he is deporting our low wage work force.

He will also find money to bail out Big Farma.

The United States hasn't had a capitalist economy for a very long time. I miss Dylan Ratigan, who was fired by MSNBC because he was travelling around the country exposing our real economy, crony capitalism.

Don't they just require either that companies sell them ownership in exchange for, um, as a result of obeying the government; or they just seize them?

This is, "Hey, need $?" "Sure!" "What are you offering, I'd like part ownership." "Sure!"

I don't think it's actual capitalism because there's economic or administrative/regulatory pressure, but it's not D-S a Western European countries nor is it nationalization a la socialism in the PRC and USSR or even Venezuela.

Perhaps pushing towards corporatism.
