While this action preempted the domination of the DAF by extremist worker organizations, it allowed the less fanatical employers to widen their power. The corporate power structure under the Nazis heavily favored those in management positions over those working the factory floor. As Adam Tooze mentioned, new regulations instituted by the Nazis shifted power away from shareholders and allowed businesses to gouge prices (174). While the loss of powers traditionally guaranteed to shareholders might have driven off some smaller investors, the capital that they would have provided the corporation was more than made up in investments by the state. Based on figures determined by René Erbe, by 1938, roughly 62% of Germany’s total government expenditures

Hitler commanded Germany into extreme war preparations to turn his country into a powerhouse before other countries were able to. A plan was introduced in 1938 to expand his army and quintuple the size of the Air Force. In nearly every one of Hitler’s projects, he planned them to be completed by the mid-1940s.

However,”After 1973, Germany was hard hit by a worldwide economic crisis, soaring oil prices, and increasing unemployment, which jumped from 300,000 in 1973 to 1.1 million in 1975. The Ruhr region was hardest hit, as the easy-to-reach coal mines became exhausted, and German coal was no longer competitive.

The key thing to realize about those numbers is that the “foreign” workers are mostly prisoners of war. They are not the most efficient workers Germany could have on its side, since morale is usually low and no one wants to build a tank to kill men from their own country. Since the Battle of Stalingrad, not only were there weaknesses on the fronts, but a chain reaction led to internal problems that had the capability of crippling Germany even

Every enemy was demonised. This was usually done with posters and flyers constantly associating them with skulls and monsters, so that even if nobody read them, Germans would still have those associations built up against their enemies.
