What bad facts about good people and good facts about bad people do you know?

William Shatner launched his own range of ladies underwear and called them Shatnerpants.

In fairness OP, Hitler stabilized the German economy using some artificial means. He racked up even more debt as well.

1. Women were banned from working (many women were teachers, nurses, civil servants). By not including women in the workforce this automatically creates more employment for men, even though you now have many unemployed women. But Hitler said their place is "in the home" so they were not included in unemployment figures.

2. 200,000 non-German (mostly Jewish) people fired from jobs to create jobs for German men. Many more put in camps freeing up jobs for loyal Aryans. Yeah economic genius.:rolleyes:

3. Compulsory 2 years military service, unpaid except for food, shelter and a little bit of 'pocket money'.

4. Loss of many worker rights/freedoms. The National Labour Service was set up to manage employment. You could not leave your job or get a new one without government approval. Employers were tightly regulated and it was almost impossible to fire someone, even lousy employees, hampering productivity. Many State owned companies dominated the economy.

5. Government income has been 10 billion Marks in 1928. In 1939 it was 15 billion. However government spending has increased from 12 billion in 1928 to over 30 billion in 1939. From 1933 to 1939, Hitler spent more than it earned so the debt was over 40 billion marks by the time he went to war. Hitler did not eradicate debt, he simply convinced the public that he had.

6. Although Hitler did create many new jobs, he cut trade with the outside world dramatically, meaning many basic necessities had to be rationed by the German people. Cars were mass produced and made affordable but petrol became scarce. New cars were of little use with such tight resources.

7. Many of these jobs (like the Autobahn) were carried out by the Reich Labour force, in which men aged between 18 and 24 had to serve six months (before their military service) of cheap, poorly paid labour.

8. Involuntary Euthanasia solved any pension problems by killing the elderly in the T4 program.

So Hitler's miracle economy was not as great as he claimed but it was still impressive considering the circumstances. Even without the war, Hitler would've broke the economy eventually, he was paying companies with IOU's called Mefo bills.

Like myself, Mr. Hitler was a vegetarian and dog lover.

however...Brian O'Driscoll is a corpse crunching, murdering bastard.

Am I doing this right ?

Enda Kenny

Met him twice in the space of a year through my employment.

First time , came across as an arrogant half wit.

Second time , genuinely interested in the service users and staff of where I work.
