"Fascism should rightly be called Corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power." - Benito Mussolini

I‘m not disagreeing with what you’re trying to convey but still: Mussolini very likely never said/wrote that, seems to have been misattributed. IF he did, the Italian word corporazioni , while technically translating to corporations, doesn’t refer to private companies, which in Italian are normally called società.
