Re: National Socialist Economics
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the NSDAP defeated the commies in the streets and the
reactionaries in the polls, they implemented far-reaching price
controls. They learned however that this did not help anyone, as it
only caused a shortage of many goods, so they abolished the system in
the 1940s.
Lesson to be learned: they were pragmatic when it came to economics,
the only rule being to do what would make the country and the people
strong.
The NSDAP also created a department of party members in every town,
who would review all businesses. If they found that a company provided
goods or services detrimental to the people's well-being and the
health of the nation, they would ban it. Nevertheless, business owners
generally welcomed the NSDAP with open arms, as the business owners
were mostly conservatives, and therefore shared most of the same basic
values as the National Socialists - indeed, the NSDAP was largely
funded by industrialists. To have immoral businesses banned was
nothing compared to what the communists would have done to all
businesses. The NSDAP were greeted as saviors by the "capitalists," of
which many were or became NS party members.
Some welfare was implemented, but nothing like the vast vote-buying we
have seen in West European countries after the fall of Germany. The
NSDAP realized that people need help to get back on their feet
sometimes, but they would not allow professional welfare parasites.
The NSDAP started several government-sponsored projects to create
jobs. Today we might think that this looks like a sure recipe for
national debt and inflation; however, Germany was a torn and battered
country, and the projects were such that they helped the economy. The
autobahn system was invented by Hitler's crew, and it helped commerce,
which more than made up for the costs. You cannot always start large
government projects like this to improve the economy, but under
certain circumstances it works.
As for foreign trade, the NSDAP strove for "autarchy,"
self-sufficiency, in order to not be put in a position where other
countries could blackmail them financially, like the Jews did when
they "declared war" on Germany in 1933, seeking to strangle Germany by
cutting off its trade with other Western countries. Germany here
followed the same philosophy as the British Empire, the French Empire,
and other empires. For this they needed an empire of their own, which
could provide raw material, and learning from the lessons of the past
they realized that they needed colonies connected by land to their
nation. Such an empire had to be created in Eastern Europe. Oh, don't
be mad, Slavic readers - you could easily count a dozen East European
leaders in the early 20th century with the same thoughts. The world
had always been a world where independence could only come through
conquest and a large empire, everybody knew that. It was only after
1945 that this philosophy was changed, in order to destroy the Western
Empires and shame Whites, the most successful conquerers, into
suicide.
In summary, the NSDAP were pragmatic, and would not have the
government own the means of production, only regulate them. The
regulations were such that the racial and spiritual health of the
people would not be hurt by immoral goods and services. They had a
welfare program, but not for the purpose of buying votes. They changed
policies harmful to the economy when they learned their lessons
empirically, and they wouldn't let ideology stand in the way of the
changes. Like all Powers before them, they sought economic
independence from those who did not share their political goals. If
the Reich had survived until today I expect that their economic
policies would have changed many times over the years, but the
underlying goals of racial health and national independence would have
been the same.

Like hell they did, they had a hell of a lot of jews, and murdered most of those.
