I was given heads up on that Hitler documentary. But I didn't have the stomach to watch it. And yes, the forced smoking bans ARE shades of Germany past.
Scares me to death to think of what the lawmakers will/who they will go after next. Doesn't it you?
It was very tame because the focus was on things such as jet engine and rocket development. The medical were the "leaps" in cancer research. When they showed the posters, laws and film clips it really scared me as to the coincidence.
With a few of the stories that have been posted here, exactly that picture has come to mind. Good post.
