    My comment never at any point claimed it was sustainable or that their economic growth was ethical and somehow beneficial to the population. In the context of this post, that has someone talking about how Hitler would be nicer if he was financially successful I said that because to him he was successful, and to the countries economy he really was. Economic performance has nothing to do with a population’s quality of life, as it can be seen in China, but even so, when compared to Weimar republic it was still arguably better for everyone,which is the lowest bar ever.
    I’m not a nazi apologist, none of that makes what they did right or desireable, I’m just pointing it out that nothing would have changed if the likedin’‘s insane post actually came true. Heck, if he made more money he would just spend even more on the army just like your own link says, the economy’ s only purpuse to him was to build an army so they could steal more through conquest.
