Here's your reply.

Per Richard Overy's "The Nazi Economic Recovery, 1933-1938", wages and consumptions of luxury goods dropped during Nazi rule. Consumption of rye bread increased 20% between 1928 and 1938, while consumption of meat was 18% lower, of fats 37% lower, and of wheat bread 44% lower (Overy, p. 34). Wages in 1938 were 7% lower than they were in 1938 despite all the unsustainable spending by the German government.
and wages as a percent of national income had decreased from 64% to 57% (Overy, p. 32). By 1939, 17 million people were on state welfare even as the official unemployment rate was at 0% - people were more dependent on the state than ever as the vast-majority of jobs were so lowpaying they had to seek governmental assistance to maintain their basic living standards.

Wholesome.

You're going to have a hard time convincing someone that this is worse than getting raped, bombed and run over in the streets, shill.

Honestly Nazi Germany gets exaggerated so much as this mechanised, powerful state of tall of Aryans. People are still falling for Nazi propaganda.

The reality was people struggling to get by with limited food in a considerably less developed country compared to Britain, USA and France.

>You're going to have a hard time convincing someone that this is worse than getting raped, bombed and run over in the streets, shill.
And why is that the alternative?

>limited food
literally never happened in the reich, this is why people supported hitler, the wages were low yes but everyone got to eat unlike in weimar

Not to mention the shitty culture, degeneracy, nihilism, alienation and white guilt of current German society.

Because that's what happened in consequence of German losing the war and being denazified = jewified, retard.

Not sure what that has to do with anything. I mean that's exactly what the Germans did to everyone else.

If it's not right, go and try to have a correction for it. Don't whine here.

That's their own fault.

So you think the great great children should suffer because of the sins of their forefathers that lived almost a century ago years ago?

typhusoids

Children's height (a good indication of nutritional availability) increased greatly during the Weimar period, but stagnated in the Third Reich.
People got to eat in Nazi Germany, but perhaps it wasn't the best quality.

In what way are they suffering from the sins of the ancestors? They got exactly the form of government they voted for. If you want to bitch about the current state of Germany, level it against the current Germans and those within the last few decades.

Who said that? Nobody.

what is hitlerjugend
what is national SOCIALISM

I've read enough first hand accounts to know it was true. The key word is "Limited" food, not no food or starvation, just never quite enough to really be full or not be hungry at some point in the day.

There's a million different routes Germany could have gone down after WW1. Go back to /b/ with your angry comments.

complete lies, no child under the nazis had starved unlike they did in weimar, so we can se a correlation between enabling food for everyone the same at the expense of quality or enabling food only for those who can afford it

Yeah, except it's not so simple. You don't have freedom of speech in Germany and the entire public education system is dominated by the left.

luxury food was of course limited, basic food was enough for everyone as the price was lowered and the farmers stimulated to work more

How do you define "luxury food"? Meat?

I don't get why people think the low unemployment was anything impressive. Pic related is where the unemployed went.

I'll give you some meat pal

>no unemployment

I know this post is bait, but do stormfags ever realize commie states didn't have unemployment as well?
The fact that you have a job doesn't mean you're working.

>shitty culture
relative

>degeneracy, nihilism, alienation and white guilt

buzzwords

Sounds a lot like Nazi Germany

bread, vegetables, milk, eggs, fruit, pig and cow meat are basic food, other types of meat lamb, turkey, also fish in non coastal parts, caviar, fine alcohol is luxury food, basic food was enough for everyone since agriculture was fairly subsidized and the price essentially lowered below poverty line, luxury food was limited to higher classes since the price increased due to a limit on imports and socialist policies

>enabling food only for those who can afford it
>average heights skyrocket

Actually no it doesn't retard.

literally not an argument

People listened to Beethoven and watched Wagner and Strauss's operas back then. Today they listen to shitty electronic music and watch scat porn.

You can't really dispute the shitty culture part. The Nazis had shit taste

You've only provided conjecture, no sources.

>People listened to Beethoven and watched Wagner and Strauss's operas back then

yea because they didn't have fucking iphones and dish washing boards to shit post on.

Looks like Weimar citizens had a decent amount of basic food then, at least compared to Nazi Germany.

>dish washing boards

Kek. That's pretty funny.

Yeah, you think that because you're probably a degenerate.

People still do listen to classical music. Do you think the average citizen back in the day went to the opera? Also what's more degenerate than scorching and genociding the continent?

Name 1 (one) notable Nazi contribution to art

Arno Breker

>employed families
why are you shilling for weimar so hard, the nazis were bad, but they did give people work and bread which SPD failed

Leni Riefenstahl

Richard Strauss

BEFORE May of 1942: civilian rations in Germany were:
• 10,600 grams of bread = 353.33 grams/day or 12.5 oz
• 2000 grams of general food stuffs / 66.66 grams per day or 2.3 oz.
• 900 grams of sugar = 1.06 oz. per day

Meals:

Breakfast (Frühstück) typically included some type of bread: sliced bread, toast, and/or bread rolls with jam, marmalade, honey, and/or butter. Butter was substituted with margarine during the war. Citrus products would have been unavailable - so marmalade would have disappeared from the retail markets.

Eggs were also a common breakfast food though fresh eggs would have been hard to come by. Grocers sold powdered egg mixes.

Coffee was more popular than tea.

Deli meats (if you could find any) were eaten with cheese on bread, either as sandwiches or open faced sandwiches.

Lunch: Mittagessen The biggest meal would have been lunch. In wartime Germany, stews would have been popular because limited meat could have been eked out with thick sauces and vegetables. A relatively simple meal (from a Culinary perspective) could have been made with Spaetzle noodles topped with a cream sauce. With cream being unavailable, a housewife could have used thickened condensed milk - perhaps with grated cheese.

Dinner: Abendessen or Abendbrot was a smaller meal. It typically included bread with meat, sausage, cheese, and/or a vegetable. Sandwiches or open faced sandwiches would have been common, though bread with margarine, sliced cheese, and sliced sausage would also have been eaten.

This is embarrassingly little. And Strauss is not a valid answer. But I guess that's what you get when the nation is busy goose-stepping for the Führer.

Unemployment reached its lowest point in 1927 and is comparable to 1937

>no unemployment
You'd go to a concentration camp for being unemployed.

>equal opportunity for everyone
Blatantly false, and also bait.

>Smart governing
A war economy destined to collapse if they don't conquer everyone around them is smart?

Why do people think Weimar was some sort of hopeless hell hole where everyone starved and rape gangs went around like Mad Max and shit. It really wasn't that bad as far as post war conditions go. They had even nearly recovered by the mid 1920s.

Fine then name artists that were contemporary to Nazi Germany (not before or after) that contributed to culture, from any country.

He was near 70 when Hitler got to power, and showed hardly any dedication to the Nazi cause, defying them rather.

Humphrey Bogart
George Olsen
Louis Armstrong
Billie Holiday
John Steinbeck
F. Scott Fitzgerald

that's just America btw

I said contributed to culture not shitty mass produced American "culture".

It's the banking and inflation crisis in the late 20s people are talking about

Well here we go. Go fling all things you consider degenerate on the book pyre.

You have a lot of quantity, but the quality just isn't there. Now eat another hamburger.

>Fitzgerald
>Armstrong
>shitty mass produced culture

wew lad I knew g*rms had shit taste but even a complete pleb like you can acknowledge the contributions these people made to culture

>Billie Holiday
>Louis Armstrong
>shitty

Fucking kill yourself. Their contribution to music and jazz was immense.

I still consider Armstrong's La Vie En Rose one of the greatest pieces of music released.

watch this before you talk shit nerd

Your music taste is shit. Imagine giving elevator music even a second thought wew.

Not sure if serious.

>being contrarian for the sake of it

that shit isn't good for heart

You two should try the non-shitposting life one of these days. :)

If you don't know who Leni Riefenstahl is, you have no business throwing that around. Literally first-year film stuff.

This is a thread about Nazi Germany, not the GOAT Soviet Union.

FUCK KRAUTS SO FUCKING MUCH THEY RE SUCH SUBHUMAN GRABGAGE SHITE

Because they think Germany when Hitler came to power was exactly the same as it was during the hyperinflation

It was probably better for workers and the urban poor, as the unemployment went down from Weimars 30% to 2%. Idk if the middle to upper classes saw much of a shift, but Hitlers Mark as opposed to the worthless Weimark did make it more comfortable for people financially in general.

>make a joke about hitler
>get shot
Deutschland, Deutschland!

Is that why young people in Nazi Germany used to copy jazz culture in secret? Nazi culture was just too shitty
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swingjugend

>Inequality up
>Wages stagnant
>but full employment

These conditions indicate evil hand-wringing bankers. But wait, weren't the banks seized from Jews and put into German hands by this time? Hmmm.

You know /pol/s here because I genuinely mistook half these posts as Youtube comments.

Consumption of more basic foodstuffs is better, yes, unless you enjoy eating rye bread and potatoes every day and the effects that come with it.
