The Roanoke Slant

Politicians and commentators, journalists and pundits are trying to assign a name to the New American System of Economics and Government and Industry that is now deeply involved in Government control of:
Automobile Industry
Banking Industry
Mortgage Industry
Energy Industry
Health Care Industry
Railroad (AMTRAK) System

Perhaps our major media, and The Roanoke Times, could sponsor a public contest in which all could submit candidate names for the new system; something like Virginia has tried to do for its new state song.

As an aside, it’s not clear to me what portions of the Constitution support government nationalization of private industry and corporations and companies. Didn't the Supreme Court rule in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer that nationalization of private industry in not OK!
