    Fascism doesn’t have a uniquely distinctive economic system per se, but it does generally exhibit a handful of specific features, including private ownership of the means of production, the melding of political and business interests with the notion that support for (specified) domestic conpanies equates to patriotism and lack of support for them to treason, and a “revolving door” by which individuals can and do hold positions of power in business or in government alternately or even simultaneously.
