Wold you kill Betthoven?
Thought I'd share this with those of you who have not seen it. Enjoy!
Question 1: If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded and she had syphilis; would you recommend that she have an abortion? Read the next question before looking at the answer for this one. Question 2: It is time to elect the new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three leading candidates. Candidate A Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologists. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day. Candidate B He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening. Candidate C He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and hasn't had any extramarital affairs. Which of these candidates would be your choice? Decide first, then scroll down for the answer. Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt. Candidate B is Winston Churchill. Candidate C is Adolph Hitler. ...and by the way: Answer to the abortion question - if you said yes, you just killed Beethoven. |
yes, c.
I don't care that i choose for Adolf Hitler. He was a great politician, same goes for Mao Zedong and Stalin. It doesn't really matter how they used their power, it's actually how they gained their power. |
no and c
I know Hitler was a bad guy, but think about it, if it wasn't for the power hungery thing, he would be a good leader. That's just my opinion. *shurgs* |
Kill him?! Nah, man, that dogs a legend!
|
Thisu wasn'y meant to be a serious post. Was just something to laugh at xD

but if I had known B was MR.Winston, I would of voted him, he was a glorious leader, and saved my country and many more |
Quote:
Well, f*ck your opinion and get some information first, before you're talking nonsense... |
Quote:
He was a good leader, just with bad ideas. That's not my opinion, it's fact. Anyway, I said no and I chose Churchill because I knew it would be him. |

Then say why he was a good leader.
|
That thread is interesting Salvanas.I would not kill Beethoven because I think abortion should be avoided at all costs.But I would elect Hitler...See, appeareances can fool.

But these things don't make one a good leader. He totally ruined Germany (even before the war). A few more years of his "good leadership" and Germany would have been bankrupt. Maybe he was clever (knowing how to gain power beforehand), but he was not a good leader. |
You can't lead a country without influencing them first.

You guys get the term leadership totally wrong. Think about it! |
I don't it is that wrong because he was the figurehead and the authoritarian power.
He was also the social model for the people at that time. |

He did what he saw as bringing Germany forward. I said he was a good leader with bad ideas, meaning he could've done great things but alas chose to do otherwise.
I'm not talking around anything, I've already described leadership twice, you're just choosing not to consider the facts. |

Leadership goes along with lots of responsibilities and duties and if you don't work on them, you're simply not a good leader. Right from the beginning, Hitler had only in mind to revenge the treaties of Versailles. While he was imprisoned after his first coup he wrote a book which summarized his goals that he followed all the years afterwards. And he just chased after that (nullification of the contract of Versailles, enlargement of Germany to the east,...). He did not think about improving living standards of the people. His foreign policy formed his domestic policy. It was only the effect of his foreign policy or was only governed in such a way to support his foreign policy. Does this make Hitler a good leader? |
Yes it does, because he influenced people into thinking in his frame of mind.

Hitler oversaw one of the greatest expansions of industrial production and civil improvement Germany had ever seen, Hitler also oversaw one of the largest infrastructure-improvement campaigns in German history, with the construction of dozens of dams, autobahns, railroads, and other civil works. Hitler's policies emphasized the importance of family life. and of course his military power and strategies are well known to be very effective, until the later stages |
Newspapers in 1932: 4703 (94 of the NSDAP)
Newspapers in 1944: 977 (352 of the NSDAP) Investments into armament in 1932: 0.6 Billion Reichsmark (1.3% of income) Investments into armament in 1938: 17.2 Billion Reichsmark (21.0 % of income) His leadership meant blinding the people and spending increasing amounts of money for military upgrade. @ Fratello: If I spend all my money for the next few days on things like holiday, clothes, massages, long nights in the bar, etc., it would be a lot of improvement of my living condition. But what comes after that? Look at Louis XIV. Improvements need money, and where does that come from? |
Hitler's economic policies were good. He did successfully reduce unemployment, and revive Germany's military and industrial might, albeit that he cheated by putting Jews into concentration camps (so their jobs were lost, creating jobs for the regular Germans) and conscription into the Wehrmacht (armed forces).

Wow you people are very well informed.
|
Either we get bored and decide to read up on pointless information (like me), or do/did History in school.
|
through History we remember our mistakes, its our duty to remember, so others don't make the same mistakes
