It should be of little surprise (and much more widespread knowledge) that just about everyone with money in the 1930s financially supported the actual Nazi party, including but not limited to Henry Ford and George W Bush's grandfather.

I actually disagree with the meme; capitalism is always fascism, just sometimes has a better PR team.

sometimes with a better PR team
