There seems to be a lot of people who sort of romanticize Nazi Germany . Especially people who spread the myth that Hitler brought economic success to Germany . I ' ll be frank about this , Hitler himself did get germany out of it ' s economic disparity wheelbarrows of money were being used to buy food , people stole the wheelbarrows because they were worth more than the money inside of them , but it was not hitler himself that did it it was the war happening that allowed Nazi Germany to get out of it ' s economic stunt , here ' s an example of why it was the war specifically , the best example why miltarizing was the reason why Germany got so powerful economically is America preww 2 during the great depression . As we know , during the great depression so many people were so poor that the soup kitchens literally could not feed everyone , almost everyone but the richest in america were broke , and those richest people were still abusing government money Cough cough the bank bailouts that were used to give bonuses to the heads of the banks , but what actually got America out of the great depression was mobilizing for war , and why did it ? Well , when the drafts happened almost everyone was immediately give a job , pay , factories started hiring because they had plenty of money from new , extremely large government contracts as well as farmers being bailed out and helped by the government to implement systems to increase food production rapidly as it was neccesary to feed the army , the ration system to maximize food for the army that gave the farmers even more money , the factories being overpaid in contracts as the government needed supplies and vehicles badly , etc . So , as we can infer from this , the recession was solved by mass immediate government employment from the military , something that would have eventually happened in germany no matter what , whether or not Hitler rose to power , as the stage for germany to want war was already set up in the treaty of Versailles at the end of WW 1 , where the League of Nations which was set up to prevent another World War did not even have the greatest military power backing it up due to Congress backing out of it and wanting isolationism .
