I think a lot of people and companies were duped by Adolph Hitler in the 1930's. And prior to and except for his world domination aspirations, he was fairly good for Germany. Germany was in a depression when he took office in the early '30's. He brought them out of it, and brought order to Germany. I knew a lady who was a child during the '30's in Germany. She said it was safe for her and a girlfriend to get on a train by theirselves and travel hundreds of miles to another city, walk around all day, and travel back alone that night. Crime rates were extremely low, unemployment was unknown and (I think she told me this)there was socialized health care. She said that until he began his world conquest campaign, you could not have asked for a better leader. But, she also said that after the world conquest came to light, many of the German people were against it, but too afraid to do anything for fear of being interred, or outright killed.
Whew, this history lesson sure sounds familiar!!
