Is statism some term that uneducated Americans with a “gubment bad”-complex uses when they can’t figure out their -isms?
EDIT: Yup. Some neolib “hey why am I not free to exploit people the way I want to? fuck the gubmint!” bullshit that “anarchists” apparently swallow whole. I swear anarchists, anarchocapitalists and neoliberals are the dumbest fuckers around.
It must be nice to live somewhere where the individuals who make up the government are completely altruistic and not selfish or corruptible at all so you can give them extensive power over your life without worry. Unfortunately I have less faith in the unchecked goodness of government workers. I prefer a system built on individuals and free exchange.

Is there another term for the political ideology or system where the state has substantial centralized control over social and economic affairs?
