The Supermanagerial Reich
There are so many things these articles overlook.<p>Germany was coming out of the WW1 as a loser. The war in Europe was nothing like you&#x27;ve ever seen in America. Germany was paying reparations for many years. Germany lost two million soldiers (out of ten million world wide). Many civilians were killed. Poorness among the families of fallen soldiers. Many were wounded. Several hundred thousand Germans died due to lack of food.<p>The crisis of Germany in the 20s and 30s was also nothing, literally nothing, you have ever seen in the USA.<p>In 1923 one Dollar was 4.21 Billionen Reichsmark.<p>No kidding. 4.21 Billionen Reichsmark. That&#x27;s a 4*10^12 in US numbers. The equivalent of one dollar.<p>1929 was another economic crisis which reached into the 30s. Mass unemployment, families looking for food, resignation, ongoing reparations, social security not developed, politicians failing, feeling of a total catastrophe - but this was based real problems. Not in &#x27;the strongest nation with the largest military.&#x27;<p>The problems of the US today are tiny in comparison. There are poor people in the US. But it is nothing compared to the Weimarer Republik and their weak democracy, which was under fire from communists, the Nazi party, conservative parties, ... even the president did not support it and in the end caused its collapse when handing over the government to Hitler.<p>Mostly the social democrats were supporting the democracy.<p>If you think the times of the Weimarer Republik are similar to the US today, its political or its economic situation - this is total BS.
