Bad news, the USA is actually communist ... for the wealthy. If a corporation is struggling because of its unethical choices or its CEO turns out to be fascist the government will just bail it out.
This is not even remotely what communism is.
That's... You're literally describing capitalism though. Capitalism is defined by a capitalist ruling class which means that government can be expected to use its power in the interests of that class... Such as by bailing out corporations.
That's just capitalism.
