How far do you agree that to what extent were Nazi policies entirely successful? 1933 - 39

In 1936 Goering offered Hitler an alternative to the slow New Plan: the Four Year Plan. This plan famously gave Germany the choice of 'Guns or Butter', Germany and Hitler both chose 'Guns', and whether or not Germany were led to this choice through either fear or indoctrination Hitler most definitely chose 'Guns'. Rearmament, this is what the four Year Plan offered it said that Germany will be fully ready for full scale war in just four years, just what Hitler wanted. It sought it to reduce unemployment, increase synthetic fibres and increase the military and German defences; in direct violation of the much hated Treaty of Versailles. Another advantage for Hitler to appoint the Four Year Plan; which shows us as Historian an intentional mindset of Hitler and he always wanted war more than the German restoration. However The Four Year Plan favoured both the protection of agriculture and economic independence and it did what it promised; The German Air force was the largest in Europe as well as the best and most effective Armour; and dedicated scientists researching new weaponry. So this wasn't an entire failure as immediately thought as a result of the loss of the second world war.

Another idea put forward and implemented by Schact was the MEFO Bills this offered a system of credit to the industrialist of resources such as steel, during a 'creditless' period for Germany this is possibly the most effective policy the Nazis introduced simply because of what it did during such a difficult time. It diverted the making of 'unnecessary' items such as pots and pan to the making of tank armour and ammunitions this led to many industrialist becoming very rich and successful, however this is a contradiction to Nazi policy of Anti Capitalism in Germany. Although members of the public wouldn't have noticed, being the decrease of unemployment dropping by 2 million and continued to fall although this seems to be a result of Nazi policy a policy that excludes anyone deemed to be illegitimate to the records so any male German who was non Jewish was only counted. Despite that being law then it is now regarded as a failure of the Nazis to provide efficient work as it is not 'entirely' successful because it doesn't include the entire population. The MEFO Bills were themselves a great success as the production of goods increased to a very high degree. However so did the production of consumer goods which either shows the German economy is booming or they are wasting resources on consumer goods which may have been a reason for the invasion of other countries.

One of the most successful implementations of Nazi policies were public work schemes; Battle for Work in 1933 which introduced work camps to get the unemployed working in  a way in which they could contribute to Germany's infrastructure rejuvenation, like railways and their famous autobahns. All of which would eventually be used for the war effort, it seems all of Germany's policies and schemes were developed with a war in mind which meant that a lot of their policies put in place wouldn't of worked. There were other work schemes introduced by the Nazis like German Labour Front and Joy through Work which although successfully employed the vast numbers of the unemployed and equally wages did too which shows a stable working economy but overall working hours also increased. The economy at this time wasn't entirely stable and neither were the distribution of wages owners of industrial factories quickly got richer and the worker's wages dropped this Capitalist route was something the Nazis said they were against, however they were also anti communist and its rather difficult to introduce a stable balance. It clear that the Nazis thought it would be more beneficial to them to be more right wing, which they were, being as the vast majority of the public hated communism.

The Nazis inability to think for the good of Germany and trying to outdo each other constantly led to the Nazis policies being occasionally irresponsible for example Goring's Four Year Plan proposition instead of Schact's New Plan. However it is clear that many of the Nazis policies had agendas for their much grander  aims like the conquering of Europe. Despite the agendas the majority of the Nazis policies were quite successful the New Plan wasn't implemented to its full potential neither was the MEFO bills if they continued these policies would have been much more successful. The Nazis with their ultimate policies like Autarky were rather successful in accomplishing that, with certain schemes like Labour schemes and Centralising resources and the Economy.
