The name here is a misnomer. The ideals of the Nazis were extremely right. So far right, they actually disagree with Republican ideas. (Obviously)
Let me do a little more research and get back to you.
But for now, please call them Socialist pigs for my sake.

I got so tired of the "Nazis were liberals" and "Nazis were conservatives" debates, I actually did something unthinkable... I looked their platform up for myself.
The name is not a misnomer. They are NATIONAL SOCIALISTS. They are nationalists, in which they support a strong military, are against illegal immigration, and are jingostic. All of which leans towards the conservative side of things. But they also support subsidized low-cost housing, public utilities, and health care--and generally do not trust big business. All of which leans towards the liberal side of things.
So it's half and half... People just take either "National" or "Socialist" to suit their own agenda and ignore the other half.

The ideals of the Nazis were extremely right.It seems to me that if they were actually "extremely right" Hitler would have been advocating the return of the Kaiser. Granted, that the people who actually believed in the "Socialist" part of "National German Socialist Workers" party, were purged, but Stalin did the same sort of thing in Russia.
