We're all one big happy government now.......

Just what part of Fascism don't you understand?

Autocratic control of the means of production. Making everything illegal that's not authorized by government. Imprisoning, fining or firing anyone, including media types, who disagree.

For instance:

 (Don Imus, remember, for embarrassing the Clintons at the national Press Club, got his. Or Newt Gingrich's book deal being taken away and Daschle losing his cushy Senate majority seat shortly after interfering with the Gingrich deal. There's probably a hundred more like this in recent memory but you get the idea. ).

Fixing elections (The Acorn gang ) for favorite politicians, like Chavez in Venezuela does, maybe.

More insidious is the interfering with the separation of power between the states and the Fed.

Well, it was bound to happen:

In a historic first, Uncle Sam has supplanted sales, property and income taxes as the biggest source of revenue for state and local governments.

The shift shows how deeply the recession is cutting. Federal stimulus money aimed at reviving the economy and a sharp drop in tax collections have altered, at least temporarily, the traditional balance of how states, cities, counties and schools pay for their operations.

Who would have expected that in times of crisis the central state grows stronger?
