"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.
