Basically the fascist Chile of the Chicago Boys’ and Pinochet’s wet dreams.
Except, even there, it was only a dream. Fascism may have elements of capitalism, but fundamentally if the leader is above the law, then private individuals don't own the means of production, it's only the leader who truly owns everything, and so it's not really capitalism.
