German Spending Under Nazi Regime Fueled War Machine
Morgan M. Beatty notes German government finances from 1933 to March 30, 1941 show about 78 billion dollars spent, with roughly 80 percent for rearmament. By contrast the US spent about 72 billion, less than 18 percent on defense, and Germany abandoned two financing plans in 1939 while relying on borrowings. Experts cite inflation fear after postwar years and inflationary features in Nazi plans as core reasons.
