Mittelfristig war ohne Subventionen des Staates die Benzinsynthese nicht überlebensfähig. Deshalb trafen sich am 25. Juni 1932[9] Leuna-Direktor Heinrich Bütefisch und der Leiter der firmeneigenen Pressestelle Heinrich Gattineau in München mit Adolf Hitler. Sie sollten im Auftrag von Carl Bosch herausfinden, ob das für den Weltmarkt zu teure synthetische Benzin der I. G. Farben auch weiterhin durch Schutzzölle konkurrenzfähig bleiben würde. Hitler versicherte ihnen, dass er synthetischen Treibstoff für ein politisch unabhängiges Deutschland als zwingend notwendig erachte. Carl Bosch kommentierte das mit „Der Mann ist ja vernünftiger, als ich dachte.“

I couldn't find this reference in the English version.

2018-10-08 14:07:26 UTC  

what does it say

2018-10-08 14:07:34 UTC  

I can’t buy an atom bomb so it isn’t a true free economy

2018-10-08 14:07:46 UTC  

But that subsidization and state involvement can be found in other places.

2018-10-08 14:07:55 UTC  

like US

2018-10-08 14:08:42 UTC  

i wish they stopped subsidizing corn syrup

@Deleted User Mises wrote Omnipotent Government in 1944 and called Nazism socialist

2018-10-08 14:08:56 UTC  

It refers to the process of petroleum synthesis.

2018-10-08 14:09:44 UTC  

It is not some modern interpretation.

2018-10-08 14:09:56 UTC  

It had not been viable at that moment for cost reasons. IG Farben, Hitler, and other companies worked closely together to achieve political aims.

2018-10-08 14:10:03 UTC  

nazists didnt made it like the russians

2018-10-08 14:10:14 UTC  

the russians decided every aspect of the companies that were nationalized

2018-10-08 14:10:20 UTC  

hiring

2018-10-08 14:10:21 UTC  

wages etc

2018-10-08 14:10:27 UTC  

Sure. Difference of degrees. Not kind.

2018-10-08 14:10:30 UTC  

Turns out when you want to eat something that’s from another state that isn’t feasibly possible in its natural form to transport to your state to consume you need to preserve it

2018-10-08 14:10:39 UTC  

the nazis seted a diferent degree of control

2018-10-08 14:10:42 UTC  

Well I mean, especially mcdonalds

```"Since we are socialists, we must necessarily also be antisemites because we want to fight against the very opposite: materialism and mammonism… How can you not be an antisemite, being a socialist!"
-Hitler.```

2018-10-08 14:10:52 UTC  

they decided the prices of everything

2018-10-08 14:11:05 UTC  

pretty much thats what socialsits do

2018-10-08 14:11:11 UTC  

This form of corporatism, where companies are technically still owned by individuals, but the state is significantly involved for political direction, is often quoted as defining for fascist countries.

2018-10-08 14:11:22 UTC  

I don't go in for the whole "liberal tears" shit. I think that's really annoying to use that in an argument. I've had people making bad points say that to me when I reply to them, so I have very strong convictions behind that.
BUT.
But.
I'm really, really happy to see people profoundly sad about this supreme court thing.

2018-10-08 14:11:37 UTC  

What Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf I would be more suspicious of. Much of it was election propaganda.

2018-10-08 14:11:38 UTC  

I'm a happy camper.

2018-10-08 14:11:38 UTC  

if the individual that owned the corporation wanted to do something agaisnt the nazis he was removed

2018-10-08 14:11:52 UTC  

and replaced with a pro hitler one

2018-10-08 14:12:01 UTC  

and you never heard again from the other

2018-10-08 14:12:09 UTC  

Happy mein kampfer

2018-10-08 14:12:20 UTC  

prices of everything were set by the nazis

2018-10-08 14:12:22 UTC  

Oh, wait. I should also clarify IG Farben: It was one of or the largest chemical company in the world at that time.

2018-10-08 14:12:36 UTC  

Chemicals

2018-10-08 14:12:39 UTC  

:)

As the name implies, it had started with the production of paints, but later branched into all sorts of products.

According to Yale, part of Nazi Political Platform was to encourage Good Health among Germans i.e Not Being Fat

2018-10-08 14:13:40 UTC  

So Michelle Obama was secretly a Nazi all this time?

2018-10-08 14:13:44 UTC  

no. 10

2018-10-08 14:13:48 UTC
