Unemployment in 2009

Germany was now hitting an ending trail. Their unemployment rate has now jumped to a total of 8.3 percent. This is the third straight rise and biggest increase in nearly four years as the fallout from the global slowdown hits Europe's biggest economy.

The numbers are now becoming more dramatic with each passing day. This past december economists said that the unemployment rate rising so much put 18,000 people out of work. They are now estimating that an additional 30,000 would be out of work by 2010.

Last year, the numbers reached a solid 40.3 million last year to reach the highest level since the German unification in 1990. This was when the government stepped in and tried to change the labour market by making getting a job more available.

Economists believe things won't look up until things get worse then they are. They believe that the unemployment rate will drop more then it did at the end of World War 2.

Hitler and the pope what??????

As Hitler was moving forward in office things started to get worse for the country. This country before never looked at you wrong if you were Jewish or Christian. Soon this would take a real sharp turn for the country. Hitler ended up meeting up with the Pope at this time and made him on his side. This is how munipulating Hitler was at this time. He had such a way with words, this was not just one dumb guy. The Pope saw Communism as a great danger and decided that what Hitler was planning on doing would be a great deal of help to the country. After this meeting Hitler passed a law stating that there could not be any new formations of any poilitical parties. Later that year, Jews were forced out of any jobs revolving around holding a public office, teaching, radio, journalism, and anything dealing with the arts and civil services. For any Jews who were uncomfortable with the way things were being ran and wanted to leave, had to pay a tax to leave.

People thought that because their country was in such disaster that anything they did would help didn't. This man is slowly ruining this country and no one noticed. All the people in this country wanted was their old lives back. Who can blame them for this? Stay tuned to next weeks blog to find out......

Unemployment in 1932 Part 2

In 1932 over 30 percent of the German workforce was unemployed. Finally things were going to turn around in 1933. The election was coming around and Adolf Hitler promised if he was to be elected he would abolish unemployment. Hitler was very lucky when he came around the economy was coming around too. The people of Germany were feeling very hopeful about all of this. However, the policies that Hitler introduced did help to reduce the number of people unemplyed in Germany. As a result of this "policy" people were not given as many rights as they had before. The government decided to make labor alot harder on the people by taking labour-saving machinery away from the people. Employers had to get government permission before changing anything about their business. The government gave most of the contracts to businesses who needed more people rather then machineries. This was especially true of the government's massive motorway programme. As a result of the scheme Germany developed the most efficent road system in Europe. Hitler also abolished taxation on new cars. He believed that every family should own a car and this is why he became very involved in designing the Volkswagen (The People's Car).
He also encouraged the mass production of radios. He wanted the people to understand and respect the steady stream of Nazi propaganda, and he wanted this spread to the German people.

As people thought he was doing good they were just being sucked into this manipulation. See what happens next week when Hitler tries Takes Over The World!!!!!

Unemployment in the 1932 part 1

After the first world war Germany suffered from a not so stable economy. Germany was now facing inflation and things could not look good. In January 1921, there were 64 marks to the dollar. That soon had risen to 4,200,000,000,000 marks to the dollar in 1932. This would all soon be over when Charles Dawes presented an economic report to the Allied Reparation Committee. This report proposed a plan that would make it possible for Germany's state bank would soon stabalize and the promises would provide Germany with foreign loans. This new report was very successful and in 1924 the inflation had been soon brought under control. Soon all this good would come to an end in 1928 when the economy and unemplyment rate dropped 8.4 per cent of the workforce. Soon the people who once followed people like Adolf Hitler very unattractive. They decided to follow the democratic system as they proposed a different solution. As people thought things could not get worse things eventually did. In 1929, when the wall street crashed and Germany's economy dropped draumatically. Germany relied so much on The United States; and when they started to suffer Germany suffered worse then any other country. As a result from all of this the unemployment rate hit an all time low. Before the crash economists estimated the unemployment rate was around 1.25 million people, by the end of 1930 the figure reached 4 million. Even the people working suffered because most of them were only working part time.

Most people in this time did not want to see anything more happen to them. They wanted to believe that things would be okay. They wanted someone to save them. Will someone save them? Or will they be left in termoil. Find out next week what happens......
