@SniperMaske So they let the workers run the businesses democratically? They promoted the rights of laborers? Because, as far as I'm concerned, that's the central idea behind socialism. Not this "stronger government" BS definition that's been trotted out by the media.
"Almost anything you can find on a checklist that allegedly proves Hitler was a right-winger, you can find almost any one of them in the communist dictators of the 20th century."
Well, no shit, they were dictators, they were authoritarian. To claim Hitler was left-wing is laughable. Or wait, let me guess, they think the "socialist" label that the USSR and Nazis held was accurate, just like North Korea's "democratic republic" label is accurate...
@ignbtd Unions are not capitalist, they want more and equal share of the wealth. That=socialism, and cutting loop holes means more and higher taxes on the rich, and that means a more equal distribution of wealth, and again that equals socialism
@ignbtd Wrong, they closed loop holes on taxes for the rich, and a more balanced pay, noly a 18% pay gap between the top and lower bracket. The bought back some unions, and regulated the banks again. Gee sounds like socialism to me. So believe me, the word of the Swedish government i will take over yours. No offense
@ignbtd Nope, i am talking about now. Sweden's economy was the model back in the 80's they went into a slump by switching to capitalism, and in the last 2 years they have went back to socialism, so 2008 means nothing because their economy was still in the slump, now they are on the rise again.
@SniperMaske
The Nazis privatized the economy and supported big business. The member(gregor Strasser) who wanted to nationalize the economy was shot in 1934.

@hawaiigopher Read the NSDAP platform: it was, indeed, socialist. Period.
