Lots of Nazis were killed or fell out of favor. From Röhm to Heß.
Schacht wasn't fired in 1937. He quit the job himself - minister for economics. He was removed from the job as central banker in 1939 and remained in a position as a minister until 1943.
> By that metrics, most German citizens of that generation are guilty.
Most Germans weren't Reichswirtschaftsminister (1934-1937) AND Reichsbankpräsident (1933-1939). Schacht was one of the most prominent members of the Nazi regime at that time and he was instrumental in directing the financing of the build-up for the war machine. Schacht was a core member of the Nazi regime from 1931 on.
