 -"And they called their movement National Socialism because...?"- 
 That name is merely superficial, let's not forget that they wanted to appeal to the masses.  You mentioned the idea of nationalizing, big govt. and so on.  Were would you place fascism?  The Republican party, being mostly conservative both fiscally and culturally, should advocate lesser spending, right?  Not always, Ronald Reagan was conservative in the eyes of the population, but he boosted govt. spending by 50%.  George Bush has spent 12 billion $ in Iraq per moth.  I'm mentioning this because people who advocate a certain belief don't always do exactly as what their side of the spectrum demands, this is how I see it.  Also, one thing, I believe that Fascism is far-right because it embodies the corporate state, the companies who served Hitler, for example, were in fact private.  Hitler kept competition to a minimum.  Furthermore, fascism views extreme nationalism as a way of keeping people -"safe"- much like, traditional -"values"- etc.  These are the reasons as to why I see fascism as far-right, I will check out the link you gave.
