a debate spawned in lounge.

hitler's intentions - were they good?

and also

what do good intentions count for.



alright: my post about hitler.

hitler was trying to boost the economy of germany. war is good for economy. of course, taking over europe is good too.

Hitler's intentions were not to wipe out the jews. it was just politically convenient to blame them for gemany's problems. They had no one to really stand up for them. easy targets, minorities.

hitler had good intentions- to restore germany to it's former glory. germany was great before WWI, but when they lost the british and the french and the americans (but mostly the french) taxed the germans soo much their economy was going to bomb.

hitler had good intentions- but he useed bad ways to furfill them. blaming jews, trying to take over europe, etc.

but he still had good intentions.

which brings us to good intentions- good intentions are never enough. good actions are needed.

notice tho everything you said was things he did

war is good for economy because you effectivley create millions of new 'jobs' for all the soilders.

and the support industry employs people too.

however, post war always is a depression: treaty of versaille made it a lot worst.

as you can see, good intentions doesn't mean good actions tho.,

i said it was the things he "did" because it was in the past. what does that have to do with anything?

new jobs for all the soldiers... some don't even get paid.. things like conscription, you are called to war to support your country. some leave jobs where they are at least paid minimally to serve their country for war. what does this result in? their families living in poverty at home, people all over the country are having to live on decreased wages in order to fund for the war. and then what happens directly after the war-- soldiers return home (some don't even), and can't find jobs, the country has previously had to decrease wages to support their country during wartime. that pretty much calls for a preettttty messed up economy.

i agree good intentions don't mean good actions. but i think you have pulled hitler into this kind of irrelevantly. because the bottom line is that his intentions were no good. he was anti-Semitic and racist through and through.
