Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Its a mess.

Just to pick the worst:

On the contrary, the government (under the National Socialists) got hyperinflation under control.

Hyperinflation happened in 1921-3. The nazis came to power in 1933.

Schacht , the Rotchschild agent, disapproved of this government fiat money, and wound up getting fired as head of the Reichsbank when he refused to issue it.

In reality:

Hjalmar Schacht - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

After Hitler took power in January 1933, Schacht won re-appointment as Reichsbank President on 17 March.

In August 1934 Hitler appointed Schacht as Germany's Minister of Economics.

He was a minister until 1943, though in practise fell from power in 1936-7, after which he was involved in coup plans against Hitler.

Oh, and what set off the German hyperinflation was trying to pay the reparations.

So, whatever they are trying to say, it has nothing to do with what happened in Germany in the 1920ies and 1930ies.
