"... Italy’s opening move in repressing private capital by raising the capital gains tax, but not on gains of government debt,” Hedge adds, “the situation has moved with such speed over the past 5 months that the emergence of the first Fascist regime following the 2008 crisis can probably now be associated with the new Monti government.”

"These troubling developments in Italy should have alarms going off."

“They put in an unelected government — no accountability, no time to elect — they will be there for unspecified amount of time. We have a university professor who used the state to slowdown corporations that got too big. This guy was with Goldman [Sachs]!” said Glenn Beck."

“These guys have gotten together and made cash transactions over more than $1,000 dollars illegal! That’s phenomenal!”


Glenn Beck: Greece, QE3 and Italy’s Return to Fascism? | TheBlaze.com

Time to wake up and see what is going on in the world. Which candidate will be best to help us avoid slipping along these same lines into Fascism?

I wouldn't be surprised, Berlusconi left a terrible root, plan and feeling in Italian government. I knew things were wrong there when he said that he did not want a "multi-ethnic Italy" in response to why he refused to allow refugees into the country. Now, I'm not saying that he was obligated to do such, but his explanation was very Nationalistic.

Glenn Beck is a racist idiot. If he’s for it I’m against it. He couldn’t beat a 1st grader in a spelling bee.

Have you heard Beck spell? Do you not know that The Blaze is run by Scott Baker, the head editor of it? I don't think you know a lot about Beck or the news empire he is creating. Do you get most of your info from Kos, MM, and Think Progress? It sure sounds like those are your sources since you sure don't listen to or watch him.

Such a thoughtful, intelligent response. Luckily, it doesn't sound like you could be anywhere near voting age.

Its like $2500 here in the states. (It was $10000 but is now $2500. Anti smurfing laws?) Seeing neither Obama, Dems in Senate or GOP in house is doing anything I guess both Dems and GOP are fascist.

Hmm Itlay is part of NATO so is Glen Beck saying we need use our military to stop what he call Commies in fact if we had an issue and want to use military action maybe the libya misson was a good time when we flew out of italy to conduct the strikes on Libya.

Now is no time to Backstab NATO allies and who cares about Itlay they have to follow strict bankiiing rules Germany and france have imposed on them to remain eurozone members and use the euro.

They are broke and this is what happens when you cut everything

I'm going to wait until Beck analyzes the letter patterns in Berlusconi's name, his zodiac sign and of course numerology proven links to the Illuminati and Jooooooooooos before I come to an informed conclusion.
