Which honestly sounds like the ideal system: let the market go, but knowing that the state is always there, watching and waiting.

The key would be to make sure that rules about intervention were standardized and objectively implemented.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough,  the whole point of third way economics is that the rules of intervetnion weren't standardized and objectivly implemeneted.

Or at least that's the way I saw it.

Essentially it was set up to combat the fact that government isn't all knowing or smart.

For example, in the Facist system, after the financial crisis, they might of fired all the ceos.  Or the ones they thought were doing worse.

Or after they paid themselves bonuses they might of reached back and defacto forced them to pay it back.

 

Essentially the "Advantage" of the facist third way system is that you aren't held down by guidlines and rules, and are essentially free to punish people who skate around rules, or who take advantage of techonology and other things to get arund other rules that shouldn't exist.

 

Essentially, government acts like God in this regard.  Your free to own your buisness and run it how you want... but if you do something to anger government?   It'll make you pay hard... so make sure everything you do is how the state probably wants it.

Right, but the issue there is how do we keep such a system from becoming hideously corrupt? Granted, i heard that was more a problem in Musolini's Italy than in Germany at the time.
