Capitalism is an economic system where the capital, or means of production (including property and Natural Resources) is owned and controlled by private citizens. The government's participation in a capitalist economy includes the issuing of money, the supervision of public utilities, and enforcement of private contracts. The main hope for government is to increase efficiency through policies and the prohibition of unfair business practices. However, the concept of capitalism differs vastly from its actual practice.
While analysts and scholars are still unable to define a fascist economy, one may still follow characteristics that fascist countries have shared. Fascist economies oppose international socialism as well as liberal capitalism. The result was a middle ground between the two ideals known as "dirigisme" -- an economic term where the government allows citizens private property and private initiative, but has directive influence and control over production and the allocation of resources. Most fascist movements aim for the elimination of autonomy and discourage international trade (while capitalist and most socialist economies support the latter). Fascist economies are often oppressive and militaristic while encouraging of social and economic inequalities.

Did Mussolini support government ownership of property?
first answer: No, Mussolini and fascism did not support government ownership of property. He encouraged private ownership. second improved answer: Fascism & communism are both socialist political & economic movements. Private property ownership is one of the major differences between fascism & communism. However, in fascism the government controls the usage of property, land, & private businesses. Fascism perverts & corrupts capitalism, such that economic & political freedom is lost. The Fascist government can decide to seize the assets of any person or business, solely on the orders of key fascist leaders. One of the ways that Hitler & Mussolini received public support from their people was to promise to resist communism (which would have seized all private property). However, Hitler & Mussolini would have eventually gravitated towards the seizure or control of all property. As you can see, communism & fascism are vey similar, with communism being the most extreme form of socialism.

What are the Features of Fascist Government?
Although there is not a specific checklist of features or traits, in general: Fascism is an extreme form of Socialism, less extreme than Communism. Some people have incorrectly categorized fascism as a "right" wing type of government. Socialism & communism are considered "left" wing, fascism is actually between socialism & communism on the overall political sprectrum (ie 'left' wing). Fascism & communism are both enforced by a totalitarian (dictatorship) form of government. These types rule their populations by overt brute force. Both types of governments control all courts, local governments, press/media, information, police & military in a nation. They may arrest, imprison, and execute anyone in that nation that the leadership targets. Elections are not allowed or are controlled by the party in power. In both types of governments, the government makes all or most of the major economic choices for the nation, there is not a national free market. Communist governments are generally more restrictive than fascist governments. (China's communist government is currently allowing some free market activities-but requires approvals on all ventures). The primary difference between fascism & communism is about ownership of property. Fascism allows most private ownership of land, equipment, vehicles, personal property, etc. Communism takes all personal or private property and converts it to government ownership (or 'owned by the people"-another form of stealing). Fascist governments may also seize property (is usually uses the term "to nationalize") for government ownership. The most well-known Fascist governments of the recent past have been Hitler's Nazis-Germany, Mussolini-Italy, & Franco-Spain. Some other nations have had fascist type governments, such as in South America. You may be able to make a case that many other dictatorships around the world have had a form of fascism. Possibly you may be able to say that Communist China is changing to be less communist & more fascist?
