TL;DR total wages rose because people worked longer hours. The economy was forced into, effectively, a war economy upheld with deficit spending (like America was doing with the New Deal, but with tanks instead of roads).

The scam continued with the annexation of Austria, Czechoslovakia, and the stolen wealth and enslavement of the first Holocaust victims paying those debts.

They paid for their tanks with IOUs and then stole a bunch of gold with the tanks

My comment never at any point claimed it was sustainable or that their economic growth was ethical and somehow beneficial to the population. In the context of this post, that has someone talking about how Hitler would be nicer if he was financially successful I said that because to him he was successful, and to the countries economy he really was. Economic performance has nothing to do with a population's quality of life, as it can be seen in China, but even so, when compared to Weimar republic it was still arguably better for everyone,which is the lowest bar ever.
I'm not a nazi apologist, none of that makes what they did right or desireable, I'm just pointing it out that nothing would have changed if the likedin''s insane post actually came true. Heck, if he made more money he would just spend even more on the army just like your own link says, the economy' s only purpuse to him was to build an army so they could steal more through conquest.
