ECONOMIC POLICY
RE-EMPLOYMENT
There was massive unemployment at the time when
Hitler came to power.
Public works programmes such as the building of
roads, motorways (Autobahn) and public buildings were
initiated. This greatly reduced the unemployment rate
while at the same time providing infrastructure and
facilities for the public.
MILITARISATION
In 1935, the Nazis introduced conscription for the army.
By 1939, there were 1.4 million men in the army.
(HITLER DEFIED THE TOV!)
Unemployment rate was drastically reduced as men
were either employed by the army or working in factories
that produced war materials such as uniforms, weapons
and equipment.
Creation of the modern air force the Luftwaffe also
boosted the economy and provided employment.
KdF scheme:
Workers could save
five Marks a week
towards a cheap car,
the KdF-wagen (later
known as the
Volkswagen Beetle)
