The Nazis did the same with their highways to keep people employed.
This just reminded me of a classmate from my teens who once said, in all seriousness, "Hitler didn’t just do bad things".
And I replied, "Uh, yeah". And in my mind, searching for something good he did, went like 'he built the Autobahn' immediately followed up with 'well, that didn’t turn out to be the best idea either', and by then the moment had kinda passed, and I couldn’t casually say "Well, actually […]".
Man, politics as a teenager was wild.
He killed Hitler, so that's one good thing he did
Can you really give him credit for that one though? He waited far too long until it was pretty certain someone else was going to do it any day now. He was even a loser in the one good thing he did.
He killed Hitler's dog right in front of him
Auto Bahn and infrastructure is pretty important to the war readiness of a country.
Wod've been better if it were rail. It was really kind of stupid for him to go so all-in on oil-based transport like that. Even diesel trains would be a better choice than cars, but given the inevitable war shortages, it probably would have been sensible to stick with either coal-powered steam trains, or electric trains.
I hear he was a pretty good speaker 🫣
US does it with their health industry, more administrators then doctors, also their military industrial complex , which is why they need forever wars to create jobs.
Except those administrators make more than the doctors and are all nepo hires...
Better if they employed more lab techs and social workers
The US did too during the great depression
Bet they used spoons.
