For the next idiot to claim Nazis were Socialists

I love it when people use sources they don't actually read.👏
From your source
Retrospectives: The coining of Privatisation and Germany’s National Socialist Part. p.189-190
"Sidney Merlin published “Trends in German Economic Control Since 1933,” in the Quarterly Journal of Economics. Merlin agrees that Germany’s National Socialist Party was looking not only for business support, but also for increased Nazi control over the economy (p. 207): “The party, moreover, facilitates the accumulation of private fortunes and industrial empires by its foremost members and collaborators through ‘privatization’ and other measures, thereby intensifying centralization of economic affairs and government in an increasingly narrow group that may for all practical purposes be termed the national socialist elite.” Merlin was aware of Sweezy’s work, but instead of “reprivatization” he used the word “privatization,” which may be the first time this term is used in the social science literature in English."
Do you understand what your source is saying? Hitler "privatized" industry by giving control to Nazi Party members and Nazi organizations. He did not allow individual private control of the means of production as we use the word privitized today. He makes this clear in an interview with Richard Breiting, "I want everyone to keep what he has earned subject to the principle that the good of the community takes priority over that of the individual. But the State should retain control;every owner should feel himself to be an agent of the State….The Third Reich will always retain the right to control property owners.”-Hitler
Against the mainstream: Nazi privatization in 1930s Germany explains how the Nazi Party used "Privatization"
"Whereas the modern privatization in the EU has been parallel to liberalization policies, in Nazi Germany privatization was applied within a framework of increasing control of the state over the whole economy through regulation and political interference."
Yes, Hitler and his Party were socialist in their own words and actions. Read "Those Damn Nazis" where they explain why they are socialist. Look at their government control of the means of production where "private property" was still subject to state control.
