To anyone believing we live in a capitalistic society, this piece should make you think again. It tells about the "public-private" partnership between corporations and governments that "prohibits farmers’ rights to save, share, exchange or sell unregistered seeds. Farmers could face up to two years in prison and a fine of up to 1 million Kenyan shillings (equivalent to nearly four years’ wages for a farmer)"
To anyone paying attention since the 1930s and Mussolini's own definition, it is the exact definition of fascism where public and private sectors join forces at the expense of the little guy (i.e., us). Can you think of other examples where this playbook runs across other industries and we get the short end of the stick? I guess you can, please add to those in the comments and spread the word about the world we live in:
  • pharma industrial complex
  • censorship industrial complex
  • military industrial complex
  • banking cartels
  • food industrial complex
  • green revolution agenda
