sigh...
The site appears to be stuck, again, with no new postings. Also, many of
the posts that were caught from the April 28th date are showing no data.
So any assistance, or suggestions, would be awesome.
Thanks

Fascism is: A fuzzy totalitarianism characterized by selective populism, contempt for the weak, fear of difference, obsession with plots, and a cult of tradition.
Umberto Eco
Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism because it is a
merger of state and corporate power.
Benito Mussolini
