The Nazis were elected in 1933 and assumed absolute power through a referendum I believe in 1934 or 1935 (they already had full power but this merely gave them a blank check to do whatever they wanted). Where's the Corporations?
The State controlled the economy and placed it in the care of Dr. Schacht.
Hitler's goal was always clear. In 1922 it was already clear in his mind:
(1) Unite all Germans in one German homeland. That is why Sudetenland and Austria were attacked and plans for subjugation of the Nordic peoples were in place. It was believed that Danes, Norwegians, Swedes, Dutch and North French were fundamentally Aryan / Germanic peoples.
(2) Provide Lebensraum for the German people. This is why Poland and subsequently the Soviets were attacked.
(3) Get rid of Jews and gypsies and cut out the influence of non-German peoples. The Jews were richer than average Germans and there were large Jewish figures that could be looked at. Due to the old Christian policies on 'usury' there was for the longest time no such thing as Christians running banks, which enabled Jews to establish great banking systems.
(4) Get rid of the Marxists who at the bequest of French and Russian propaganda and interests created a large ammunition strike. The strike occurred because average Germans suffered greatly and only 2% of government expenditures during WWI went to the private sector (
source). There was a lot of striking but the final blow was a large ammunition workers strike which left the Germans without bullets.
By all accounts, Germany would have done better if it were not for the over the top government spending and the strike in 1918/1919 that crippled the machine. When the war had stopped in the East in 1917 it was clear that the Germans should have been able to win as they had doubled the number of soldiers on their front, but it meant nothing as the industry was collapsing.
But in Hitler's mind the whole thign was to be blamed on Marxism which he regarded as both a Jewish fabrication and due to internationalist tendencies a downfall for Germany.
Hitler was stauncly anti-Communist because it was not nationalist.
All of his goals were ideological. If you read his book there is absolutely no mention of corporations and he ven says in Mein Kampf that the ideal government is merely one which
puts the best people in charge, elevates the smartest people to the highest offices, and criticized Capitalism for its nepotism and Communism for its... Jewishness, internationalist perspectives. Perhaps it was too early for the common sense argument
it doesn't work.
(Mussolini criticized Communism as undermining the human spirit by equating happiness to property, and that none of the fundamental problems of the human spirit would be solved by property; the real issues of the human spirit would be solved with more fulfilling things like patriotism, glorious service to one's country and taking over Yugoslavia and Ethiopia).
It was always about the German people for Hitler, which meant lebensraum for Germans and the destruction of their enemies (Jews, Marxists, homosexuals, antisocial types, gypsies, etc.)
