What is it called when government owns the means of production again?
I believe that's Mussolini's own definition of "fascism".
Also how is it not a violation of anti-trust laws for the gov't to back one US chip-maker (Intel) and not the others (AMD, TI, etc.)?

If there were any shortcut definition for Fascism, I would say it's the 'militarization' of civil society, with clear-cut lines of hierarchy and authority, from the 'Head of State' all the way down to the 'heads of households.' The 'rule of law' is understood to mean 'the Ruler is the Lawmaker.'

I think you hit the nail on the head there! Mussolini was the principal author of Fascism. One of his objectives was to revive the power and glory of the Roman Empire (look up 'Pax Romana'), which included centralizing (i.e. 'corporatizing') all of business and commerce under one Ruler (i.e. CEO).
