This sounds like a push poll to me. It strives to find some examples of nice-sounding policies of the 3rd Reich and then invites Germans to opine about whether the regime had some good points.

Everyone knows that the Germans had high unemployment in the 1920’s and 1930’s. Hitler put them to work on the autobahn and established the Volkswagen automobile manufacturing plant. So, while the entire 3rd Reich was evil to the core, there is always something that can or could be construed as positive when polling a population.

Results of such polls do not indicate anything regarding whether the Germans actually think Hitler’s government had redeeming qualities. Infact, the Germans are still reeling from the after effects of Nazism, and I am afraid it will still be so in 50 years.

This poll is meaningless.

For a short term almost everything can be considered positive.
