That's what transpires from Hannah Arendt's books : that the IG Farben
demanded from the Nazis slave labor, and Jews were exploited so that the Capitalists that owned the IG Farben could obtain the profit maximization, and produce chemicals with basically zero costs of productions.
This is what Capitalism does to men: it transforms them into greedy people, who lose their humanhood, so I am entitled to call them greedy wolves.
Greedy, sadistic wolves disposed to enjoy seeing Jews dying while working in those camps.
They even built their factories around Auschwitz on purpose.
It's all in Hannah Arendt's book
The banality of evil.
Thoughts?
That was not due to Capitalism, but political interference in the free market by the Nazis. It is when Government, which in that case was the Nazi Government tries to pick and choose winners, and then stacks the deck. Slave labor will stack the deck for any company in any industry. Then Capitalism turns to crap, since the rest of the competitors cannot compete. With supply less, price increases, then those who distorted the free market; Big Government, try to blame capitalism to cover their tracks.
For example, Biden and Harris play favorites; green energy versus oil, in terms of the free market. This lopsided spending and vindictive regulation caused inflation. Now Harris wants to add price controls to food, which is just another Government intervention, to cover its tracks, which will make things even worse. Kroger which is the largest food chain in the USA made a profit of 1.4% last year. There is no room to add price controls. Apple had a 22% profit but they are not a target by Harris. Still picking winners and losers. In the case of the food chain, their margin is to tight, they could go bankrupt, and then the local food supply gets even less and many cites, for higher inflation that shifts to the black market where food will be plentiful but more expensive.
Under Trump, he reduced regulations; stopped Government interference for oil drilling, and there was prosperity, since when the market is free more businesses appear which add competitions that increases supply, as well as quality. Price start to come down. Gasoline was $1.90. Now it is double due to Big Government. As soon as the Government tries to pick winners and losers, it not a free market anymore.
The US Government has to be the stupidest in history. Each dollar given to spend depreciates by -22.7% due the interest owed each year on the National Debt. These bonehead moves usually occurs when career politicians, who never owned a business or hired employees, decide they know better. The competition in the free market is enough work already, for any business. Also having the boneheads in Government add sand to the gears, leads to more failures, reducing supply, causing inflation.
In the case of the NAZI and IG Farben, this was like the DNC did to the USA, with their pet companies; green, while adding burdens to their competition with excess regulation; oil. There is ripple effect in the free market since limiting energy production, before alternate energy was in place increased everyone's cost and ate into everyone's paycheck. Then they blame the greedy business for their predictable screwup.
