Fascism, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Despite her faults, and despite the incompetent boobs that currently run her government, the US is still a pretty good place to live and work. If you want a taste of real fascism/socialism/authoritarianism, visit Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela, Iran, China, or any number of other countries where the state rules your life from cradle to grave, with their draconian laws and harsh penalties for violating those laws, like the loss of a hand for theft, in Iran, or five years in jail for being openly critical of the government and/or its leaders, in China, North Korea, or Cuba.
We have more freedom here, than in 95% of other countries around the world. Visit the US, and see for yourself, instead of parroting some radical socialist/communist nut job that somehow got a job teaching (indoctrinating) you in high school or college.
The USA is my country, and whatever her shortcomings, I'm still proud to be an American. Complain about my government all you want, but when you run down my country, you may expect an acerbic response. Remember that the people, and the government, are not always mutually inclusive.
