Being bad at governing actually helps fascists concentrate power. Hiring corrupt or incompetent people eventually erodes away all power that is not yours. Breaking things is always easier than building them. Vote for team builders, not strongmen.
You hear a lot that, under Mussolini, "At least the trains ran on time." This is now a way of saying, "How gross is it that on-time trains would be worth living under a fascist dictator." But here& #39;s the wild thing...THE TRAINS DIDN& #39;T RUN ON TIME.
The rebuilding of the Italian railway mostly happened before Mussolini took power. But Mussolini and his propagandists insisted over and over again in the myth of fascist efficiency, TELLING people that the trains ran on time, when they actually didn& #39;t.
