Chapter 48
These measures are all routine, and they are all considered from the perspective of managers! They just want to formulate various policies without considering the feelings of the lower classes!
There are still many reporters at the scene. These reporters will disclose today's content as it is. If Brüning's measures are implemented, the ghosts believe that the domestic economic problems can be improved!
Of course Hitler would not give up any opportunity to attack his opponents. Hitler said calmly: "If you implement these economic measures, it will only make our economy worse! And you, I am afraid you are waiting for this opportunity to take advantage of our economy. Decline to achieve diplomatic victory.”
"I can analyze that your approach is that although we Germany pays the war reparations on time, it will convince the victorious countries that we are unable to continue to abide by the obligation to pay the reparations. In order to achieve this goal, you need a disaster-ridden Germany, where the people are suffering. In exchange for the victorious countries' understanding of Germany's situation, the issue of war reparations will be settled once and for all."
Every sentence is a sharp attack, and it hits the nail on the head!
"Mr. Bruning, now I can tell you responsibly that what you did is extremely wrong! To use our weakness to win the sympathy of Britain and France is simply a shame for us Germany! If we do not There is only one reason to pay the reparations, it is definitely not that our country is too poor to support the war reparations, but that we are already strong enough to make the enemy fear! At that time, they will take the initiative to retreat!"
Not because of our weakness, but because of our strength!
Hitler's words made Hindenburg's eyes slowly light up, and he was completely moved by Hitler's words!
"Mr. Hitler, tell me, what good plan do you have?" Bruning was speechless, but he would never admit defeat. He didn't expect that Hitler would hit the key all at once.
Bruning did put the issue of compensation in the first place. As long as the compensation is terminated, Germany can be relieved!
"Seven years ago, the French sent troops and occupied our Ruhr industrial area. At that time, in order to complete the compensation to France, we decided to print a large number of marks, which led to the rapid depreciation of our marks. This practice, It’s a totally lose-lose approach.”
When it comes to mentioning seven years ago, Hitler is extremely excited. It was a sad moment for him, and it was also a peak moment for his career!
Germany is a country that accepts death, and those people at that time were all one-strands. Don't you want compensation? OK, I'll print the mark for you!
Germany has printed enough marks to cover the annual compensation. If these marks are only circulated in Britain and France, then that's fine. The problem is that Britain and France will still come to Germany and buy things in marks. There are too many marks, and the mark is depreciating rapidly!
It can be said that the Albert government at that time made fun of Britain and France through this method, but at the same time, it also made fun of itself. Britain and France did not benefit from it, and the German economy was in a mess!
"Now, with the outbreak of the economic crisis, our mark has depreciated and become waste paper." Hitler said: "Then, let's just give up the mark completely."
Hitler did not use any of the means that Bruning said, because he knew that these means were of no use at all. If this method could save the German economy, it would be because God was too generous.
Give up Mark! Hearing Hitler's words, Bruning couldn't help but retort: "Mr. Hitler, are you sure that the sun rises from the east today? If you give up Mark, how will we conduct transactions in our country?"
"Then do you want our people to go to the market to buy a box of matches on bicycles and bundles of marks? What's the use of such marks?" Hitler's rebuttal was even more forceful: "Now, it has been Some people have started cooking with our marks, Mr. Bruning, do you think such marks can take up the responsibility of domestic currency?"
"You are so high above, you don't even think about what's going on below, use the plan you thought up in your office and apply it to our country, Mr. Bruning, you can only bring our people to hell. ” Hitler said.
"Currency is the equivalent of exchange. We issue marks, which must be backed by gold and silver, that is, the gold standard, and we print marks without restrictions. This is the real culprit of the devaluation of marks. Therefore, before the economy can be effectively developed. , we can only temporarily give up Mark, we can barter."
Give up Mark! Ordinary citizens can barter. This method is the most suitable. Although it is inconvenient, there is no need to worry about the devaluation of the mark!
A true economist would say how important money is, but now, when money has become waste paper, bartering is more appropriate!
"At the same time, we will also carry out another form of improvement, which is the ground rent mark." Hitler said eloquently: "Binding the currency to land and industrial products, this way, will never let our ground rent mark depreciate in any way. , because our land and industrial products are valuable, not waste paper like marks."
Rent Mark!
Historically, the Weimar Republic experienced hyperinflation, and the currency was no different from what is now Zimbabwe. At that time, Schacht successfully suppressed the continuation of hyperinflation by binding the country's land and industrial products, preventing Germany from becoming the pioneer of today's Latin America.
"I will never issue the existing mark, which will lead to continued inflation and the plunder of the wealth of the people!" Hitler's voice echoed throughout the hall: "It is better to give up the existing mark than to let our The wealth of the people has been damaged again!"
"At the same time, I will also implement new measures to increase employment opportunities for our people! It is up to our government to invest and prepare to significantly improve our road infrastructure!" Hitler said: "I'm sorry, I'm late, because The carriage I was in fell into a mud puddle and I had to walk over."
"This made me see the backwardness of our country's infrastructure construction, so I have an idea." Hitler said: "If you want to be rich, build roads first! If I become chancellor, I will build more than 3,000 kilometers in total. Highway network! And these infrastructure constructions will allow us to add millions of jobs!"
What do the German people need? Not tax hikes, not benefit cuts, but jobs!
