Nationalism

"Why should we need to socialize the banks and factories? We are socializing the people."

-- Adolf Hitler; to Hermann Rauschning (1939)

Against Democracy

"After socialism, Fascism trains its guns on the whole block of democratic ideologies, and rejects both their premises and their practical applications and implements. Fascism denies that numbers, as such, can be the determining factor in human society; it denies the right of numbers to govern by means of periodical consultations; it asserts the irremediable and fertile and beneficent inequality of men who cannot be leveled by any such mechanical and extrinsic device as universal suffrage"

--Benito Mussolini; from 'The Doctrine of Fascism (1932)

Law and Order

"our wish is that responsible folk should once more be brought together so that every class and every individual should be given that authority over those below and that responsibility towards those above which are essential if one is to build up the life of a community"

-- Adolf Hitler; from speech at Stuttgart (Feb. 15, 1933)

Regressive taxation

"the tax mill should be built downstream and not at the source."
-- Adolf Hitler; from Speech on Enabling Act (March 23, 1933)
