 Fascists are leftists retard 
 True. Fascism is the "right-wing" of far left extremism. Communism is the "left-wing" of far left extremism.

According to Mussolini, the guy who coined the term "Fascism" . . Fascism is the merger of Government with Private business.

Government taxation and regulation of private business is a form of fascism, especially if the government forces the people to buy that service or product.

Example . . . Unaffordable Obamacare 
 ^this. Defining fascism without mentioning govt collusion with private sector biz is simply an abuse of the term.
