So in your definition that makes China fascists, considering all its big corporations are merged with the government?

I'd say it's the nature of power, politics and the existence of government. They start out small and then grow and attract corruption. You can only slow it down by having things like democracy (especially direct democracy) and separation of power.

Yes? I'm surprised that the idea the Chinese government is fascist is a controversial one. China is easily a totalitarian government.
