I mean…to be fair, he did achieve all his promises. He got people back to work, making living wages.

There’s just this HUGE astrict next to that statement that he did so by murdering millions of people, thus creating a demand for jobs. He also only counted German born white heterosexual males. Sure, unemployment was virtually nonexistant, but women, gays, mentally challenged, other races all were not included in the employment pool.

And the jobs they held were manufacturing war efforts. Whether that was building tanks, making food rations, drilling for oil, it all paid a living wage, and they got to blame someone who wasn’t them.

You ALWAYS have to look for the astrict. It’s like the terms and conditions of the monkeys paw.
