> Remember that other than oil German economy was much larger than ussr but they produced far less weapons Because what they were producing was primarily for defense, and not offensive conflict. The support of germans starting families, of currency based on *productive labor*, of supporting mothers, and public fitness, and obligatory military service, all of this was socialist, and positive for them as a **genetic group** because they lived in a largely homogeneous nation. That is the only time socialism can *ever* work: when merged with *ethnic nationalism*.
