On this fascist background, the USA government promoted house ownership, car ownership, TV propaganda, and multiple births. This winning combination led the USA middle class, emerging after World War Two, to the false belief that they had achieved a higher status than the nazi middle classes of the Thirties in Germany, Italy, Spain, Japan, or the USA. That was an illusion, because the conditions were exactly the same, as the salaries were set at exactly the level that would allow families to have a certain standard, but without any capacity for saving. Without savings, workers and employees are slaves of the industrial establishment, and without trade unions, they are also slaves of the political establishment.
A certain type of corporate trade unions, similar to the Italian fascist institutions of the “Camera dei Fasci e delle Corporazioni”, remained in the USA, however tainted by an aura of federalism and anarchy, which contributed to make the new generations very afraid of the trade unions' sometimes shady behavior and unclear modus operandi.
The average USA family, after daily purchases of food and clothing, and after essential capital consumption, was not able to set aside any money at all in savings. House-mortgage-slavery, car-payment-slavery, paycheck-to-paycheck-slavery, poor public education, and no public health, all contributed to turn the USA middle class into Middle-Class-Poor.
