Whole Foods Market CEO John Mackey drew a lot of heat for comparing Democratic healthcare reform to socialism in 2009. And now he’s doubling down, calling Obamacare “fascism” instead.

"Technically speaking, it's more like fascism," Mackey told NPR in an interview aired Wednesday, referring to the Affordable Care Act.

"Socialism is where the government owns the means of production. In fascism, the government doesn't own the means of production, but they do control it, and that's what's happening with our healthcare programs and these reforms."
