  1. Much of what you say is true however you seem to be missing the point. Hitler is called a fascist, but he was a socialist a National Socialist, he was obsessed with getting revenge for WWI, for that he needed the people to fight for him, to do that he needed to bring them along with him. Hence the socialism all the benefits and handouts that Germans had never had before, the social organisations, the paid holidays, Strength Through Joy. For Germans only of course, only they would be fighting for him, everyone else was disposable, and of course in time even the Germans were disposable. It was all financed by financial trickery. Did you never wonder how they went from being broke in the Weimar Republic to being an industrial powerhouse by WWII? All of it was financed through a secondary economy with Bonds that were used to pay for all the industry. These bonds had to become Reichsmarks real money by 1939 and he didn't have enough Reichmarks, so he had to plunder. The debt was created to fund the war, and the bills were paid by looting the conquered countries. There was no way for Hitler to carry on peacefully, his trickery would have come to light and it would have been all over. Once he started on the path there was only one possible destiny...War.
