Just catching up on the news.

Interesting: "Hitler Promises 6,000,000 Homes".

A policy in line with the Nazi desire to build a model socialist state.

Hideously, there is no difference between this and any of the proposals espoused by modern American democrats. The randomly selected whole number of 6,000,000 homes in 10 years, all built according to a plan Hitler favors without regard to what people actually want, is no different in kind than Obama's declaration that 1,000,000 electric cars be on American roads by a selected date. All tyrants just flip their hand, jut out their jaw, and decree that things be as they declare. How repulsive. Sorry for the rant.
