    Is this pro-neoliberalism? Private interests tend to oppose what’s in the public interest.

      US Government policy in WW2 was the opposite of what you’re thinking of.

      Companies were basically forced by government to cooperate and to work in the public interest / war machine.

      They worked real hard to rewrite history in the 50s with the anti-communist propaganda but the USA that won WW2 was quite socialist, more so than any Western country now.
