Failing of Nazi Economy Policy
Reducing unemployment
1933, women were encouraged to stay at home, and not to go for work. Therefore their jobs were sacked or just giving up, and the women were not included in the Nazis' unemployment figures.
Jewish were not considered as citizens, therefore they were not counted as unemployment figures too.
People who wanted to work excluded from the unemployment figures
Germany as a 'model nation'
After 1935, unemployment men were forced to join the RAD, they work and this helps to create an impression of Nazi Germany is advance and strong
Reducing dependence on imports
Due to the shortage of food, in 1939, Germany had to import one-third of its raw materials
Government spending way more than its income
By 1939, the government had a debt of 40 billion marks but their importing still more than its export
Rearming Germany
Spending on arms were increased from 2 million Reichmarks to 17 million Reichmarks between 1933 to 1937
By 1938, they created 900,000 men in the army while The Treaty of Versailles had limited Germany's army to 100,000 men.
Helping German Farmers
Agricultural workers were counted as being temporary unemployment but in the statistics they were counted as full emplyment
Improving Living Standards
There were frequent food shortage and therefore rationing were introduced
Between 1937 to 1939, the basic foodstuffs such as bread, meat, milk and eggs were dropping, which means that it isn't enough for the Germans
Workers wages were increased, but the number of working hour also rose by 10%, the costs of living rose too.
In fact, by 1939, the average worker's wages were less than 1933
There were a organisation which called the DAF, they get the workers to work harder and control their wages, they wanted them to work more but without more pay.
Employers expecting that the workers can spent their spare time to build the facilities by taking contributions towards their running costs from employees' wages
