Fascism is characterized by a close partnership between large government and corporate power, exemplified by Mussolini's ideology. This merging of state control and business interests can be seen in modern contexts like U.S. healthcare, which operates under a system that incorporates fascist elements.

The legacy of fascism prompts continual reflection on governance and efficiency in contemporary societies.
