Is the USA today like Germany was in the 1930's?

Question

Look at the Comparissons
Germany=America

2.German Freedom Act=Patriot Act
3.Concentration Camps=Abu Gharib and Guntanamo, Cuba
4.German Bloody Imperaialistic Invasions=American Bloody Imperialistic Wars(Afghan, Iraq)
5.Adolph Hitler=George Bush
6.Nazi Control=Republicans/Conservatives
7.Brutal Medical Experiments in Germany=Medicare, Medicaid, and VA treatment here in America
8.German Propaganda Machine=Fox News

Answer 1

Ridiculous comparison, no

Answer 2

Your comparisons are not accurate.

The Reichstag fire was caused by Hitler in order for him to gain power and take over the existing government. The Twin Towers destruction was caused by an outside group whose intent was to cause the toppling of our government and have anarchy.

The German invasions were supposedly geared to take over neighboring countries and to control them on a permanent basis. The goals of "American ...wars" include establishing and/or strengthening countries to ensure a democratic independent nations.

Read about the Nazi party and their goals in no way do they resemble the Republican party.

There were brutal Nazi medical experiments that affected many people. Read a transcript involving the trial of of the Nazi doctors at Nuremberg . While Medicare, Medicaid and the VA hospital should be improved they n no way resemble the medical experiments in Germany.

George Bush is not at this time a popular President. When his term of office expires he will peacefully relinquish power. He is no way similar to Hitler.

You ask a question and then answer it your self with outright incorrect statements. That is not right.

Answer 3

swing and a miss. honestly you liberals say how much ahte cons have and then you say crap like that. hitler killed 6 million people in camps for thier religion and another few million in a worldwar. last i checked we were in a skirmish or a war at best. i was unaware of any brutal medical experimnets by medicaid since no one i know can really get them to pay for well any kind of medical care and we have no curfew no martial law and who cares if fox news is alittle biased we have like 10 good news organizations all that have different biases. so take off the tin foil hat go look out side and maybe you will notice that america with its problems is still one of the best countries in the world.

Answer 4

I posted this to another question, but it seemed a most appropriate complement to your question as well.

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

-- Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials

Indeed, there are a lot of similarities.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not one of those left-wing nutjobs who think 9/11 was a Bush & Co. inside job, nor do I agree with everything on that list. But the tactics the government used to get people to back the "War on Terror" are summed up quite handily by Goering. IMHO.

Answer 5

Do you people ever stop. Regardless of where you align yourself politically, Abu Gharib and Guatanamo are NOT concentration camps, George Bush is NOT Adolf Hitler, and Medicare/Medicaid IS NOT TANTAMOUNT TO MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS. Admit it that you are a mindless hater that is desperate to grasp for straws. Why are you only attacking one side of the political spectrum anyway? America is just as much liberal/conservative/Democrat/Republican all around.

Answer 6

In terms of pure vileness, the U.S.A. doesn't match Germany. As well, the World Trade Center attacks were the acts of terrorists, whereas the Reichstag fire was a Nazi inside job.

In a broad sense, you're correct, however. The U.S. under Bush has become an authoritarian society that is edging closer and closer to fascism every day. What bothers me most is that Americans seem to welcome this move.

Answer 7

So-when was the last time you saw soldiers marching in the streets and coming into your home to take your family away?
Have your belongings been confiscated by the government?
You have no idea what it was like in 1930's Germany. Unless you were there or know someone who was, I'd go off on a different tangent.

Answer 8

so we are more like germany than even germany. your view is skued by your hatred of America. and all of your comparisons are way off.after taking about twenty or so minutes to make some on line, side by sides and you could be no further from the truth mr. soros.

Answer 9

The first four are interesting, but you lose credibility with the last 4

Answer 10

Go and mind your bridge now troll. You do get that nobody agrees with your mindless, ridiculous rants? You are laughable at best, and quite sad at worst. Maybe even pathetic.

Answer 11

This remains the most odious lie that you leftist nutjobs spew.

Anybody who thinks the US today is anything at all like Nazi Germany is a retarded tool. Period.
