“What Mises identified was that private ownership of the means of production existed in name only under the Nazis and that the actual substance of ownership of the means of production resided in the German government. For it was the German government and not the nominal private owners that exercised all of the substantive powers of ownership: it, not the nominal private owners, decided what was to be produced, in what quantity, by what methods, and to whom it was to be distributed, as well as what prices would be charged and what wages would be paid, and what dividends or other income the nominal private owners would be permitted to receive.”
thats a misrepresentation tho because mutualism is market-neutral
@ritasuma there would be no free market then
lol
To reduce worker power was massively important
Except hitler created trade unions
Keeping the companies secure and dominant over employees was essential
German Labour Front
ahah
Yes he did, and they were massively beneficial to the companies again
plus i dont know enough
But yes companies were over regulated
They had no independent complaints process
the state controlled the economy big time due to state intervention
They could not strike
private property is always defined by the government because u rely on its protection to retain ur property unless ur living in anarchism <:GWfroggyBlobThonk:400751075776397322>
They were entirely dominated by the Nazis and they would force people to join the party to be accepted
what were dominated by the Nazis ?
Yes they created them
Which are supposed to be worker controlled
Not always
thats the definition of a trade union isnt it

Come on
Say it
Not neccisarly
The big companies
Yes neccesarily
And the companies were over regulated by the state
I’ve studied the German Labour Front
I said they don’t have to be owned by the workers all the time
It was an attempt to prevent striking and worker disharmony
Private or state can do it
Because German conditions were generally pretty shit
For the average worker
Food quality went down
“Its leader was Robert Ley, who stated that its aim was 'to create a true social and productive community'.[1] Theoretically, DAF existed to act as a medium through which workers and owners could mutually represent their interests. Wages were set by the 12 DAF trustees. The employees were given relatively high set wages and security of employment, and dismissal was increasingly made difficult. Social security and leisure programmes were started, canteens, breaks, and regular working times were established, and German workers were generally satisfied by what the DAF gave them in repayment for their absolute loyalty.”
real wages remained the same while working hours increased
