Honestly the Nazis were not this Uber competent group. Tons of in-fighting, poor strategic and logistical choices, and they did not run the government nor country in this rigid orderly way that is and was projected by their propaganda.

I would say they had a very good propaganda campaign that's still ongoing and paying dividends. Once you look under the surface some and start learning more about how the country was governed it becomes clear there was plenty of room for improvement.

I mean, think about it this way, they chose to commit an industrial genocide on a hellacious scale wasting men, material and destroying the soul of a nation. How much more manpower would they have had if they didn't commit these crimes against humanity and instead had drafted these folks.

Like I know it's not a great comparison or awesome though experiment and lacking any nuance but I think it makes a point.

There’s a reason the regime collapsed in less than a decade.

Yeah that dividend still pays out, it's insane. Take a country that ruins itself so badly so quickly, and the propaganda works anyways ??! The human brain is wild.

Nazi economy was dependant on war. Their propaganda that Nazis have fixed the economy was so good that it lasts to this day. While the person responsible for it was ingenious his policies went all against at the time rules of economy and for a reason. It was just masking the problem which could be hidden only as long as there was war. In defense of the economist it was not his plan unlike other nazi's to expand the war, but to stop pretty early compared to what happened. I would love to answer any questions but even after spending 90 minutes on a 30 minute video I was not able to understand it completely.

The German economy under the fucking Nazis was a Ponzi scheme and the German worker was earning less than the incomes from late 1920's. That is f'ed up and MAGA continues to guzzle down their Orange Kool-Aid.

Yes, they controlled inflation by controlling unions and ceiling prices.
