His ire of the Jews was because he believed they were the cause of the financial ruin his people experienced.
The full story here is very, very, very dark and implicates the WWI Allies.
There are no innocent parties in the Shoah outside of its victims.
Control doesn’t make money making easier when that control destroys the economy. It turns out productivity drops when people are treated like shit. You can see that happening at Twitter and Facebook both, for example.
But you’re right that this is about control. It’s just that it isn’t necessarily about the money except insofar as having a lot of money gives you a lot of control. Shitlords like the Apartheid Manchild or Harvard’s Robot wouldn’t care if they lost money … as long as everybody else lost more.
I made a little table showing the highest marginal tax rate from 1913 to 2022 coded in blue for Democrat presidents and red for Republican:
The first Democrat run saw a stunning rise of 66% in the highest marginal tax rate due to the insane expense of WWI.
The first Republican run saw a drop of 48% as the nation moved away from the war economy and into the post-war economy.
The second Democrat run saw a sharp rise of 38% at the beginning and a further rise of 28% by the end of their run because of the Great Depression and WWII in that order.
The second Republican run kept the ultra-high (91%!) highest marginal tax rate during the post-war boom with no change.
The third Democrat run saw the rate fall by 21% over its span.
The third Republican run kept the rate as-is over its span.
The fourth Democrat run (single-term) kept the rate as-is over its span.
The fourth Republican run dropped the rate by 39%
The fifth Democrat run saw an increase of almost 9% over its span.
The fifth Republican run saw a drop of almost 5% over its span.
The sixth Democrat run saw an increase of almost 5% over its span.
The sixth Republican run saw a drop of almost 3% over its span.
The final Democrat run (and the last data I have) saw no change.
If we factor out the war years (up to the end of the second Democrat run) we don’t see a huge pattern of differences in tax rates, given that those are the highest marginal tax rates and people in that bracket tend to have many ways to evade taxes. (Apartheid Manchild recently complain/bragged that he paid an amount of taxes that turned out to be 3-4% of his income where the vast majority of people pay well over 11% of their incomes, for example.)
So I doubt it’s money. It’s something else.
Other interesting notes that pop out at me:
Here I see a distinct pattern that should alarm anybody running a business since lost sales account far more for lost wealth than alterations in the highest marginal tax rate.
Because Vivian Jenna Wilson transitioned.
It really is that simple.
Before that event Apartheid Manchild was a dick, but mostly of the poorly-socialized technonerd variety. Still a dick, but not perceived by most as being a threatening dick.
After that event, where he coined (to my knowledge) the phrase “the woke mind virus”, he jumped deep into the MAGA swill.
Before that event he was kinda/sorta hailed as a “real world Tony Stark” but never really particularly accepted. People liked his products (well, let’s be honest: product) and otherwise didn’t give much of a shit about him.
After he went Full Metal MAGAt he became the object of worship and adoration of fellow MAGAts on Twitter (before he bought it, even), getting the uncritical acceptance he’d always craved and never really got.
And it turns out he wants to feel like he “belongs” more than he wants to sell shit.
