Nazi Economics :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Tom (United States), Dec 1, 2017 at 06:29

While likening these parties to the Nazis is a bit much (at worst AfD might resemble the DNVP), I would point out that the Nazis weren't exactly big fans of the free market, and had many policies that resembled leftist thought regarding economics.
The main difference between how the Nazis and the Soviets approached economics was that the former were willing to co-opt the system, while the Soviets wanted to replace it completely.
