> Hitler turned around Germany's economy in the 30's
Sorry, I must comment on that, because this point is sometimes publicly repeated by politicians. It was mostly an expected recovery after the crash in 1929, combined with job programs that were planned before the Nazis, a secretly state-sponsored war economy, and various dubious methods (to say the least). see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Nazi_Germany#Recovery_and_rearmament https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Nazi_Germany#Recove... for a summary.
- AussieWog93 5y agoThanks for that! I have a similar pet peeve when people talk about the economic performance of the CCP, so get where you're coming from completely. Truth be told, I don't know much about Nazi History at all. I just used Hitler as he's often held up as the paragon of evil, but even he helped some people.
