It was actually pretty funny. They tried the falangist corporativist-syndicslist meme until the '60s, when they decided to abandon it in favour of privste enterprise, and the economy had the highest growth rate in Europe.

Proving even NATIONAL socialism doesn't work as an economic system.

But then the democrats fucked it up by going back to gibs.

Better than it would have been had the so-called Republican side won.

Good post.

Nazi economics would had turned Europe into a giant North Korea.

>>3347899
Depends, if Gil-Robles or Portela Valladares had won the 1936 elections, the Spanish Republic would had remained stable and the civil war would have been avoided altogether.

Post-1936, I agree with you. A victorious Republic under the left would have turned Spain into a Stalinist shithole.

>Implying National Socialist economic system doesnt work

boy have you seen the economic growth of Germany from the 30's up to 1943? plus dont forget what happened with unemployment, Hitler turned Germany from a shitty defeated country to a great world power nation plus if the Reich won the war (or if WW2 wouldnt have happened) the 3rd reich would have had the strongest economy in the world.

>smash and grab: the economy
The Nazi economy was a massive bubble of funding the military and paying for it through printing money for meme projects like the autobahn. Had there not been war the bubble would have burst and the edonomy would have collapsed as Germany print more and more money to fund their war machine and their collectivised projects, it'd have collapsed as the projects became more and more meaningless. The autobahn is s bad example of this, as roads inherently generate money from the transportstion of goods, services, etcetera. But once they started printing money to pay people to cut down trees you'd have started to see problems with this.

I'm not lefty/pol/, by the way, I'm a ctually a fascist who supports a supervised privste enterprise with checks and balances placed upon it, socialism simply can't work as it competes internationally with the for profit industry of the west, failing to keep up with their innovation and sheer gluttony of the capitalistic system.

Economic Genius.
>plus dont forget what happened with unemployment
Unemployment "fell" because hitler made it illegal for women to work, and barred other minorities from the workplace, and see above, if you fund growth with collosal government spending with no intention to pay iut back the country will look like a wonderland for 5 minutes and then crash due to mounting debt.

>Hitler turned Germany from a shitty defeated country to a great world power nation
Germany was always going to a great power, it was larger than france, an incredibly industrialized nation, and since the formation of Germany this has been the case.

The reich declared war on every super power on the planet, if germany won they'd have to be literal fucking gods.

Not in a largely unmotorized country like 1930s Germany.
At least not enough to justify the costs.

>>3348102
Actually it was quickly becoming a motorised country with people like mercedes, and several other car companies starting to mass produce their cars. It was actually one of very few instances where the state actually managed to predict the will of the market as cars blew up around this time, the new roads just hastened this incredible growth period for this particular industry, which is why, like I said, it was a poor example of a state failing on this front, as it was remarkable how well they predicted the automobile boom.
Though it can be debated how much of that was artificial, with things like volkswagen being pushed by the government, but nonetheless the industry exploded during this era and made a lot of people a lot of money.

>economic growth of Germany from the 30's
It was all thanks to Hjalmar Schacht, a Conservative economist who implemented Keynesian economics without disrupting the market system. As everybody that has studied Economics knows, Keynesianism works great for economies coming out of a depression, with large unemployment and idle industry, as was the case in Germany or USA in the 1930s. However, in the long term Keynesianist demand stimulus hampers investment and supply growth, as inflation overheats the economy and the state crowds out private initiative. So it's a short term fix that works only in very specific situations to kickstart a stalled economy.

By 1939 Hitler had removed Schacht from all effective role in government, and went full socialist, handing the reins of the economy to Göering who as Reichsmarshall was given full authority to "nationalize industries, set price controls, requisition goods, execute people for hoarding and economic sabotage, and so on". At this point full socialist economic planning had taken over the Reich, with state industries, price controls, currency controls, and an overbearing big government controlling most aspects of the economy.

It is funny Naziboos praise Hitler for the economic recovery of Germany while despising Roosevelt - Both used the exact same policies to get out of the Depression.

And from 1939 onwards Nazis went full socialist, which is even more paradoxical considering how modern Nazi LARPers hate socialism.

>>3348150
>less cars per person than south africa

Perhaps the reason for the expansion was to get up to standards with the rest of Europe? Not as miraculous a judgement of the market as I had originally thought. Kinda bizarre it seemingly failed to get them up to spec before WW2 with the sheer amount of money as out into this process.

wtf there were women working (also in the Army) also there werent so many minorities in the reich at the time except for the jews and slavs who got mostly deported (in some cases used as cheap labour too).

>Germany was always going to a great power, it was larger than france, an incredibly industrialized nation, and since the formation of Germany this has been the case.

The Weimar Republic was shit it had a weak government its very difficult they would have became a great power without a centralized authoritarian government.

>>3348065
funding military was very important at the time since Hitler wanted to annex rightful Germanic lands and he had to build a strong army in order to not be bullied by France or the Brits or worst by the USSR (the bolshevik threat).

Free money does kickstart demand, more money circulating around business's will prompt business's to expand, meaning taht eventually you can drop those gibs programs, and gibs can increase the cnosuming power of everyone if used effectively (I.e, using public programs like healthcare to keep people alive and spending)

>>3348210
Probelm is the gibs cycle never stops, resulting in a mindless chattel class of iphone buying unemployed people, with the government spiraling into worse and worse debt until essential services start to fail and then the entire thing goes to shit.

It's cruel, but the most efficient system is survival of the fittest capitalism, where wealth is solely generated through value and the feckless die.

The neoclassical synthesis is the key, IMHO.

Keynesianism for the short term emergencies, free market capitalism with limited government and low taxes for the long term growth cycles.

Ideally, the aim of the neoclassical synthesis is to stabilize growth rates. Governments should limit spending in times of prosperity so as to save a healthy surplus that allows them
to increase spending or lower taxes in times of crisis.

Thus the growth rate is stabilized as policies are permanently anti-cyclical.

Sadly this type of thinking is rare on the internet since only the most fringe, retarded "theories" are popular in these type of websites - Randroids, gold bugs, insane Marxists and Naziboos.

It's easy to dismiss us centrists since our opinions are more nuanced and harder to explain. An extremist making wild claims and resorting to cheap talking points often seems more attractive to the uneducated types.

>>3348168
Do you have any numbers on how much they invested into the automotive industry?
It also could be that they were worried that the rubber and oil needed for motor vehicles would be cut off from Germany in a possible war (which it did), so they decided to focus on other things.
>That so little of the highway network was complete or scheduled for completion during the war may seem surprising. Yet in the eyes of the General Staff there were good reasons why this should be the case. It was basically a question of strategic priorities. As the High Command saw it the projected war would not
be won on the roads of Europe. The war was to be a railway war, just as 1870 and 1914 had been railway wars. Even by 1939 the railways bore the brunt of all communications requirements. Sixty-six per cent of all freight traffic by State railways, 4 or 5 per cent by private railways, 20 per cent by inland waterways, and the remainder by coastal shipping and the roads. It would hardly have been feasible for this very limited road haulage base to satisfy the rapidly expanding demands of the Armed Forces in wartime.
https://sci-hub.bz/10.1017/S0018246X00005926
The article also shows how the Volkswagen plant - which the automakers like Porsche were reluctant to produce models for because they didn't like the idea of mass producing a competing model and were put off by the idea of a "people's car", taking pride in their craftsmanship - which was intended to produce over half a million cars per year, instead produced 1.5 million stoves, but only 48,000 vehicle chassis.

Yo, this is about Franco and Francoist Spain not Hitler or the Weimar Republic you faggots

Spain under Francisco Franco was very repressed. To say that he promoted the usage of Castilian Spanish would be a rude understatement. He outright suppressed the usage of Catalan, Galician and Basque. He wanted those languages to die.

Fun fact: Francisco Franco was a monarchist but after he won the civil war, he installed himself as a regent rather than giving power back to the monarchy. That wouldn't happen until his death. King Juan Carlos was the selected successor to Francisco Franco but decided that he had no use for Francoism and transitioned Spain into a democracy in 1978.

>>3348389
>To say that he promoted the usage of Castilian Spanish would be a rude understatement. He outright suppressed the usage of Catalan, Galician and Basque. He wanted those languages to die.

So, he tried to "genocide" languages. very evil indeed.

Juan Carlos was a piece of shit and a shill of the CIA. He literally give the spanish territory in Africa, shut down the nuclear program and become the country in other USA satellite.

Grandparents lived under the regime. Their families were ironically enough carlist, but they made friends with the falangists. Grandfather worked for Telefonica. He told us about how employees in the headquarters in Madrid were not allowed to go to the basement, because that's where the secret service would tap the phones. He also told us about how the thing people were most scared about was if a person that was walking down the street saw another person walk up to him and flip the lapel of his jacket, because that meant he was secret service and he was in trouble.
Grandmother studied chemistry in the university of Salamanca. She said how during those days they were only 10 girls attending the seminars. She had to live in a convent with nuns who had very strict rules as to curfew and talking with the wrong people (which she said nobody really paid attention to).

Bohemia, Moravia and Poland weren't German land. Brits and Baguettes complied with German demands and Soviet wouldn't be capable of expanding west if Hitler didn't attack everyone.

Ironically, Spain had good relations with Castro's Cuba. Castro declared three days of mourning when Franco died, and some Cubans with relatives in Spain (including my father) went to Spain for an intermediate period before going to America at times when Cuba didn't allow direct travel to the US.

>>3351379

Spain could've taken Gibraltar with German support.

>>3351379
>it could have ended just like in the Falklands with Argentina.
Not really. That was solely possible because the Falklands are islands far off the Argie coast, so Britain could use it's, even then, impressive navy to BTFO them. There'd be no such luck with a land connection to Spain, they could send their entire army in.

The only possibility to safely defend it would be to mount the SAS and Royal marines as snipers snd RPGs in buildings and bunker doen for Stalingrad tier urban conflict.

Furthermore, I doubt NATO would help, France certainly wouldn't want to go to full scale war over a monkey infested rock. Plus, depending on what year it was, it's debatable they'd even be in NATO.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO#French_withdrawal

>>3351480
Not to derail the thread, but the Argentine Navy was pretty impressive in 1982 though, one aircraft carrier, several submarines, destroyers, modern Naval Aviation with Super Etendards that had just been rolled into production by France.

There was no will to fight that war. Period. There was a lot of inter-branch rivalry and the Argentine Navy just stayed in port after the Belgrano was sunk and refused to go out.

Nobody expected a fight and nobody had the stomach for it. Only the Air Force went all out, sinking several British ships.

Argentina and Britain were close allies for over a century and the Navy in particular was the most Anglophile branch. The war was an accident of history born from a retarded gamble that went wrong.

If Sbane would have entered the war, Gibraltar would have probably fallen. Not only because german support was one of the conditions for Spain entering the war, but because it would have been a new front for the UK that was already pretty saturated everywhere.
That being said, the possible outcome of this would be complicated to imagine. On the one hand, Spain was economically fucked, but at the same time had a good amount of battle hardened soldiers and equipment that would have supported the Axis effort. On the other, if things would have ended as they did in real life, Spain would have probably fall quickly (as North Africa did when the murrikans disembarked there), more destruction for an already destroyed Spain but would have also benefited from the Marshal Plan and a democratic government far before than in Real Life.

They propped up the entire economy by turning it into a military/industrial complex and it created countless jobs, which is all fine and dandy if you're at constant war, but if you're not, eventually tanks are gonna be worthless and your economy is gonna collapse. Germany would've been bankrupt by 1950(probably a lot sooner).
By 1939, the German economy was fully committed to rearmament. They were running a HUGE budget deficit, spending something like 50 times more than they were taking in. They kept this secret through some fancy accounting tricks, because they didn't want people to realize the full extent of their rearmament, and also because you'd never want people to know you're running a tremendous budget deficit like that. The Nazis also had a fairly generous welfare state to keep the German people from turning against him. One of Hitler's pet theories about Germany losing World War 1 (alongside "muh jews") was that he felt that shitty conditions for German civilians during the war caused morale to break down, resulting in Germany losing its will to fight. Hitler wanted to make sure that this breakdown of civilian morale wouldn't happen again. All of this is quite expensive, and unsustainable unless you're plundering other countries to pay for all of it.
Of course being at constant war is only useful if you win.
I don't think I would hold up Nazi economic policy as anything other than an example of irresponsible government which almost brought Germany to its knees by 1938. Hjalmar Schacht, who predated the Nazis, was ultimately removed from office for resisting Nazi economic policy insanity. The annexations of Austria and Czechoslovakia were necessary to shore up the faltering Nazi economy.
Maybe you should read The Wages of Destruction before talking about something you clearly don't know anything about.

>>3351510
This. And also in the inter branch fighting in Argentina airforce was pushed aside and forgotten, while they were only one that could and did sink British ships.

Also, even with all the rearmament, the logistics of the German Army was in sorry shape, as soon as the Wehrmacht would roll through a country, trains and trucks were seized and even then it wasn't enough. The whole Uniting Germanic Lands was just something to throw at the masses to justify seizing any assets they can to hold off the inevitable.

5,900 infantry held off a Soviet Army more than quadruple it's size with minimal Nazi reinforcements

>Another Million men wouldn't help
Did I ever said they HAVE to supply Spain?

>>3357158
Because anyone who kills a commie is a hero

That's the point of gold you idiot, it keeps its value. They had it before the republic and kept their status thanks to it.

I'm implying that Soviets would always outnumber them.
Some German general said "every time they killed 1000 Russians, Soviets would just send 1000 more" or something like that.

My point is having another Axis power wouldn't make a difference to Britain would be nonsense even if the Allies still win

There's no way Britain could send their military to Germany, Italy and Spain without losing several battles

Spain had a shitty economy after the war because of sanctions that was out on them until they joined muh international community

And they became rich while the rest enjoyed the misery. by that also they became a perfect scapegoat.

>>3358525
Honestly, anyone who doesn't own gold or silver, even though he has money for it is an idiot.

>>3358500
I don't.

>>3358499
It's mostly because of Franco's autarky idiocy.

Germany was a wealthy and prosperous country after the hyperinflation ended in 1924. Jews were not the only rich people in Weimar Republic.

I am talking about the german working class, this was the reason why many of them supported the nazis (until the night of long knives)

Don't bother arguing with the /pol/tard.
Indeed there's a reason Hitler was a nobody in the 1920s. He only gained traction with the Great Depression, which brought down democracy in many countries were it was not fully consolidated.

Young democracies are always prone to falling during global economic downturns, as happened during the 1930s, 1970s , and though not shown in chart, the late 2000s

>>3358577
No, most workers supported the SPD or the Communists. NSDAP was supported mainly by the middle-class.
Weimar was actually very good for the workers. Other groups were dissatisfied - the middle-class, old aristocracy and in late 1920s the peasants.

>wheraboos come and shit it all up with their autism
This is why no one likes Germany.

>>3359001
It is the sacred duty of Germans everywhere to ruin everything they can find.

>Declared war on every super power on the planet
I'm still impressed they had the balls to declare war on the British Empire, the USSR, France, the US, and Brazil

>>3347878
>The "economic miracle" was initiated by the reforms promoted by the so-called technocrats who, with Franco's approval, put in place policies developed in Spain. The technocrats, many of whom were members of Opus Dei, were a new breed of politicians who replaced the old falangist guard.

Rojos. Got what they deserved.

What is it with Francoist Spain that /his/ likes so much? Not a day passes without at least a thread dedicated to this subject. Not complaining, just curiosity.

>>3359848
Out of all the things that /his/ obsesses over, Francoist Spain is the last that comes to mind for me.
Operation Barbarossa and Africa threads probably occur at ten times the rate than Franco threads.

Also what would Spain gain with joining Hitler
Im sure theyre eyeing up Gilbraltar and some colonies but they'll cut off the economy that is so dependent on sea trade and be a target for ally bombers
And im prettu sure Franco is suspicious of Hitler too

>>3359848
I think it has to do with the fact that it was possible for a country with the same ideological background (at least initially) of the Axis powers to survive WW2 and up until the 70s without being overthrown or invaded by the allies.

>>3358538
He was forced to autarchy. Portugal and Argentina were our only allies till the year 53.

>>3348389
not supported by facts

>>3358599
Apparently a lot of women also supported NSDAP, because they cared more about religion than wages. At one point they had more female than male voters.
