He basically nationalized Germanys factories on a war footing.
Yes, he became a ruthless, totalitarian a-hole but his roots were embedded in socialism.
Wow, are you off on this statement. Hitler was a Fascist, which is a far cry from Socialism. Socialism deals with distributing wealth, whereas Fascism incorporates a totalitarian government which dictates more than just the economy, often including race preferential. For example,Hitler's tyranny over the Jews, and the confiscation of all citizen's guns.
