Didn't have a (socially necessary) hour for you, only a (socially necessary) 10 minutes...

Doc:
Not if you were the "Aryan" working class (thus, ‘national’ socialism - a socialism that exploited a race, rather than an economic group, in the name of the ‘people’)...

Stoller:
Are you actually suggesting that the Nazi state did NOT exploit the (German) working class?

Stoller:
Give me an hour at the public library and I'll BURY you in citations...

Well, for anecdotal reasons I did not have that hour at the library---only 10 minutes.

But I will suggest that the 1933 ABOLITION OF TRADE UNIONS in conjunction with the 1933 COMPULSORY WORK ACT* suggests some exploitation of the working class. Hitler ended unemployment, all right---by illegalizing it. Wages, as expected, were correspondingly LOW.

It was a dream come true for capitalists...

* Don't be boring and compare that to the Bolsheviks' Civil War labor conscription. Germany was NOT AT WAR in 1933.
