SAME IDEA THAT AMERICANS ADOPTED AFTER WWII

he spent all the money conquering central european shitholes

THE GREAT DEPRESSION WAS PROBABLY A DELAYED RESPONSE TO WWI

pre ww2

he started ww2 when he did as he was broke

and needed the polish and french means of production

INTERESTING THEORY

to take over the lebensraum

HOW WELL DID HE INTEGRATE FRENCH PRODUCTION INTO GERMAN INDUSTRY?

he just took resources

like when he went into romania

that was the point of tkaing the caucauses

but he didn't think about it

how to get the oil

GERMANY ALWAYS NEEDED RESOURCES

THEY HAD COAL BUT WERE SHORT ON OIL

HENCE NORTH AFRICA

as he had maxed out mediterranean shipping with romanian and bulgarian oil fields

he had no way of getting it

if he took saudi arabia

no pipeline

certain british counterattacks

not that he had anyway of getting there on land

or sea

he didn't even have enough stuff to get to the urals

as eastern europe is mud and dirt roads

and blitzkrieg does not work as there is nothing but shtetls and mud and woods

BLITZKRIEG WORKS BEST AGAINST INDUSTRIAL TARGETS THAT CAN BE SEIZED

EASTERN EUROPE WAS MOSTLY PRE-INDUSTRIAL

HOWEVER

HE WOULD HAVE HAD TRAINS

AND COULD HAVE INCREASED SHIPPING

BUT THIS WOULD HAVE CONFLICTED WITH SOME OTHER AIMS

I THINK HIS ERRORS IN THIS AREA ARE OVERSTATED

WHILE HIS MILITARY/LOGISTICAL ERRORS ARE UNDERSTATED

THE SOCIALIST BASIS OF HIS SOCIETY, HOWEVER,

WAS THE ELEMENT OF FAILURE: IT BECAME IDEOLOGICAL INSTEAD OF PRAGMATIC.

Hitler didn't fix Keynesianism. For one, the plans preempted Keynes whereupon Keynes remarked on them in his *General Theory*.

The immense debt taken on by the National Socialist state was overbearing to the point where it would have been eventually forced to take drastic action, and very well may have been. Look up their system of promissory notes -MEFO bills - and see how such a system would necessitate failure unless met with miracle.

And: they were not "Socialists," in the literal sense. The name "National Socialist" was a suggestion from Rudolf Jung, whom also wrote the goals and ideas of National Socialism in his *Der Nazionale Sozialismus* some years earlier. Hitler wished to call the party the Revolution Party or somesuch.

They were more akin to Fascists, but at the same time not explicitly so. A good source on this is Evola's "Notes on the Third Reich."
