jackhutton 🇺🇸<p>“When Chancellor Heinrich Brüning’s government declared a long bank holiday on July 13, 1931, after a run on the banks following the collapse of the Darmstädter and Nationalbank, the economic crisis began to hit home.

jackhutton 🇺🇸<p>Isn't this interesting. During Hitler's rise 'the price of eggs'..“People bitch like lunatics but are Nazis nonetheless.” In this case, the sounds of hostility were not reliable indicators.”</p><p>Excerpt From<br>Hitler's First Hundred Days<br>Peter Fritzsche</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/maga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maga</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/learnfromthepast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>learnfromthepast</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hitlersFirstHundredDays" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hitlersFirstHundredDays</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/peterFritzsche" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>peterFritzsche</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/wwii" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wwii</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>history</span></a></p>
Seasiders2<p>Day 17. Stamp challenge<br>Today’s stamp recognises the International Year of Shelter for the Homeless. The stamp cost 36c. The first line for the explanation for this stamp starts, “ Approximately one quarter of the world’s population is inadequately housed” I will not bother with what is said next because of the white hot anger I feel for Australia for thinking it was a good idea to set the international record as a virual aim for its people. <br>I do not blame landlords renting houses to a tenant where rent is almost beyond their reach. The decision to aid personal wealth though housing stock has been a deliberate policy of government. As was the decision not to house the unhoused in state owned property. Our recognition housing was of primary need to mankind in 1987 was lost until now as today, families sleep in cars and jobs go undone because workers cannot find a place to sleep at night. <br>When these stamps were collected we had no idea how different things could become in a few short years. <br><a href="https://aus.social/tags/stamps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stamps</span></a>, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/housing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>housing</span></a>, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/policy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>policy</span></a>, socialhistory, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Australia</span></a>, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/learnfromthepast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>learnfromthepast</span></a>.</p>
