That's literally the definition of economic fascism. Private corporations that are subservient to a one party state. The efficiencies of capitalism directed towards the will of the people.

I think it's important that people understand the core argument behind fascism because if you do not counter it, you allow it to spread. Sometimes not by name but in form.

It's also my core argument against any non liberal radicalism but that's not a popular view on this platform for some reason.

Do you disagree concerning what would motivate you or the average person in the world? I'm answering based on the latter.

Unironically yes, I do believe that. Space exploration is a worthy endeavor in and of itself and takes up a fraction of the budget.

It doesn't reward it anymore than even local government control over resources. You act like nobody has ever tried to get out of a speeding ticket or fake their way to impress their lead.

The most likely scenario is an action that causes the majority of the military to rebel such as what happened in Syria. That's partially why the military swears an oath to the Constitution and not the standing government.

For that to happen you need an inciting incident that is at least perceived to be against the Constitution by the majority of the military including a significant portion of the top brass.

We almost got there with all the January 6th shenanigans but the inciting incident involved the military sitting down and not listening to the Executive branch's unethical orders.

Most people get confused because inflation is already accounted for in most reported numbers.

That is categorically false and it's dishonest to suggest so.

GDP is at the highest rate in years. We are at full employment. Participation rate is the highest it's been in 50 years. Wages outpaced inflation while inflation was crazy high helping debtors and the working class at the same time.

Your ideology blinds you.

They absolutely do and they place no limitations on themselves.

They literally have the government platform in Gaza and are for some reason believed at face value despite being more wrong than right. They are also amplified by multiple Arab states and their state run news organizations.

You can highly doubt all you want but go do some research on current consumer behavior after you are done doubting.
