He lost the popular vote (In the first election, Hitler lost to Hindenburg, 30 to 49 percent. In the runoff election, Hitler lost to Hindenburg, 37 to 53 percent). He was appointed Chancellor, and then used his party machinery to destroy his opposition via arrests and intimidation. The fact remains that you seem to be unable to distinguish between voting vs. appointees. Perhaps a dictionary could be of some help to you...!? > > >> >>>Also keep in mind (west) germany received FOUR TIMES the per >>>capita aid as japan did after the war. >> >> >> I don't know how much "aid" Japan received, but Germany's allotment >> was $ 1,4 billion in loans and credits. > >In English we use the period as a decimal point. Bravo, while you display your penchant for espousing narrow semantical points, e.g., "In English we use the period as a decimal point", you simultaneously engage in transparent attempts to deliberately distort historical events. Your 'selective' treatment of factual information is dishonest at best. Facts are only pertinent when it serves your purpose. > > >> It REPAID every penny of it. >> Please be precise in your language.

You obviously haven't got a clue about 'Fallacious Arguments' and how it applies to critical thinking. If you did, you would spare us your drivel.... Regards, -- C.B.
