And National Socialist economics turned the decrepit Weimar Republic into a powerhouse within a few years, in spite of war reparations and the damage done by the Great Depression.
Americans have been raised for generations to venerate the "free market" as the supposedly only system that can bring about economic prosperity.
Which is patently untrue, as further demonstrated by the fact that the once dominant US industry has been replaced by the aptly named Rust Belt, while communist China became the far more productive economy in its stead.
Which is not happening by chance, but by design: Under contemporary western capitalism, the people serve the benefit of the market, when it ought to be the other way around.
The Supreme Court even confirmed this as early as 1919, in Dodge v. Ford Motor Co.
The Court confirmed that corporations have no obligation to benefit their employees or customers, much less society as a whole. Their only obligation is to the shareholders.
I'd argue the booming US Free Market Capitalist economy and the booming NatSoc German economy happened because at those points in history, the jew banking parasites weren't a factor.
Hitler banned usury and exiled the Rothschilds after forcing them to scrub his bathroom floors.
USA's booming economy occurred during a period when the USA has two ((( Federal Reserves ))) which each only lasted a handful of years and, although ((( toxic ))), weren't active for long enough to do great harm.
I suspect both systems were exceptional, but the NatSocs was superior because it had protections against the jew and political corruption which the US Constitution lacked.
I'd merely caution against putting your faith into a system that, by definition, has no obligation to a nation and its people.
I'd further argue it was the relative stability, rich resources, and industriousness of the American people that made the free market great, not vice-versa.
In fact, it's the work-ethics and ingenuity of the people above all other factors.
Japan, for instance, has produced successful economies under the Shogunate, the Emperor, and democratic rule alike, in spite of being notoriously poor in resources.
Putin made interesting attempts to force foreign-owned corporations to invest their profits into the Russian economy.
But I wonder if it is possible for any modern economic system to function without CEOs prioritizing shareholders over citizens.
