It requires fascism and a a strong executive branch.

Well, for starters, Hitler didn't print money. And he certainly dind't preside over an increase in domestic consumption, which plummeted further than in the Weimar era. But in any event, his economic "solution" was a teetering structure that was always on the brink of collapse and eventually necessitated the invasion of other countries to bolster foreign reserves and add what was basically slave labor to the equation.

It wasn't sustainable by any means, and it wasn't really an economic recovery in the usual sense of the word. And ever since the 70s, the standard Keynsian line of government raising taxes (or printing money), spending a lot to encourage hiring out of any economic slump to attain full employment has fallen out of favor; monetarism is the main economic theory at the government level these days.

At some point you need to seize the assets of production, even if its only parts of it. And that could result in a screeching match, even if you don't seize it from jews.
You also need to seize the means of staying in production, via dictatorship, coups or media manipulation.
Both of these things are hard to do, even more so over time.

You also risk teething to overconsumption, leading to a bubble. And once you do, you might risk trying expansion, or you don't.
If you don't, you are now uncharted waters.
And to even try to reach overconsumption, you also need to have a large enough population base to try the hardcore expansion. So you can't do this as a small nation.
On top of that, you also need the internal knowledge and tech base to be high enough to even try, otherwise you just turn into a exporting sweatshop with no competence. Or it can take time to build it, where IRL even Japan spent decades to reach "Modern levels", before fucking up in WW2.

So:
1. Fractured power base means its hard to try
2. Means of production is hard to acquire, and so is staying in control of them
3. The ideas used as a base can be bad. Even among good Nationalsocialisten policies, there is failed projects, due poor ideas
4. You might get invaded in a proxy war, because you seized means of production
5. There might be a coup or succession. Normal thing
6. You need to be ambitious to even try
7. Ruling classes is generally segregated from the rest of population, meaning they have no will or ambition to fix societies core issues
8. Hitler had a extremely broad social background. So did many of his inner circle before hardcore politics entered the fray. Leaders of such a expansion need good social depth, otherwise there will be no ambition or expansion. Or failed Austrian thinkthanks that fail to expand trough austerity.

Because the only way to pay for all that was to attack and conquer all your neighbours and then take their stuff.
