They were allies before they were opponents. Politically, what they had was a bitter family feud, the International Socialists vs the National Socialists. The former has a better sales pitch: anyone can join our club, only later it is revealed that you can't leave, but you'll wish you could. Either way, it's Everything For the State, Nothing Outside the State. Small government, town meeting, Minutemen and micro-brews have no place in national or international socialism.National Socialism had a losing pitch: if you're defined as part of part of our nationality, join us and rule the others, also give up any independent thoughts. If you were not part of the mythical Persian race (Iryan-Iran:Aryan, supposed ancestor of the Germanic tribes), you exist to be slaves.* Hitler didn't think that one through. whaddya expect when a art school reject runs your country. There were more practical, ground level reasons for their rivalry. e.g. Russia had vast oil reserves, Germany has none, and there was that little business of 1914-1918... *unless you are Japanese, who became defined as neo-Persian. |

In Nazi Germany, the government owned some of the means of production like Volkswagen, but most were owned by large corporations like Krupp I was in the semi-trailer business when I was young, during some of my stay, we were part of Thyssen -Krupp. Budd-Thyssen Krupp |

If the New Deal spending hadn’t been cut back, much of the IND second system might have been built. |

Correct. The $$$ (and materials) that was going to build the second IND system went to the war effort. |

The New Deal was far from perfect, no doubt. Thats reality.Another reality, where would this country be without the New Deal? What were his other options to get the country back to work?. I'm aware that the Govt is in business to make money. How can they make money if most of its workforce is out of work? Do nothing? I'don't think so. FDR was such a beloved figure before & during the war that he was reelected to four terms. If his programs & policies were such a failure & bad for the country as you say, how come voters let him keep his job until he died in office? History has overall backed up FDR & his New Deal as the right medicine for the sickness that the country had at the time. And thats a reality. |

The stock market crashed in 1929. We waited until 1933 for the New Deal. Obviously doing nothing for over 4 years was unproductive and unacceptable. Elections have consequences.Republicans haven't accepted the realities of the hit they took in 2018 in the House and Governor's races. 2020 is coming. |

The Hong Kong exception relies on ownership/lease proceeds from real estate parcels--sort of as if MTA owned acres of midtown office blocks adjacent the various subways.As an aside, when the Northwest Territory Act was passed over 2 centuries ago, it specified the grid plan for lots in the new states 9west of the Ohio River etc). In each "etownship" lot 16 was to be owned by the local board of education. In Chicago, some of that turned out to be in the Loop. |

Both flavors pushed their own version of religion.NS had a paganized version of Christianity; the guy with the weird mustache expressed regret that Germany was not Islamic, he preferred the ethics of that religion. Not unrelated, he persuaded the Persians to rename themselves Iran, as in his version of history Persia is the origin of the Ayran (Iryan) race. Whaddya expect from an art school reject. WS -- one could drone on and on about their version of religion, way too far off topic for here. WS does have a religion, it's just not Abrahamic or Pagan and it replaces the supernatural God with other fixed, unquestionable beliefs. |

So in theory, it should be possible to reproduce stuff that the Budd company did? Not that I want the R-32s to be produced again, but something like Jersey Arrow III's (modified) or Pioneer III trucks woukd be nice. |

Well, I'm guessing that stainless steel welding technique is no longer proprietary...I'm really not sure exactly what applies to what. I'm tempted to call a friend with an IP and patent law practice, but if I ask about railroad trucks he may file to have me committed.... |

Denver was the only city that matched all of their criteria, one of which being a non-saturated job market. However recent studies have show the importance of agglomeration effects on innovation so basically a tech company's best move is to go to a place with an existing tech culture. |
