When Hitler got into office Germany was in a bigger depression than the U.S. Two years after his economic policies Germany was not only out of their depression but had a full 100% employment. It was nothing less than a miracle. He did not do it by taking people out of the employment pool or by a military buildup as many have said. He did it with his own economic policy. People then ask how and they want a simple answer. But there isn't a simple answer it is a very involved answer that would require studying how he did it. But it is never mentioned. Why?

Because saying anything positive about Hitler is uncomfortable and taboo...

So, you think banning women and Jews from the professions is an economic practice that should be emulated?
Are you also in favor of conscription? Hitler's "miracle" included expanding the German military from 100,000 in 1933 to over 1 million by September 1, 1939 through universal conscription. That's from a population of 79 million. By contrast, the US in 1940 had less than 500k in the military from a population of 132 million.
FTR, Hitler's "economic miracle" was predicated on not even counting women and Jews as being part of the workforce at all, whether they were able to keep their jobs or lost them.
Nickerman & N Cole1, Hitler had critical advantages over Franklin Roosevelt’s administrations. Hitler e was not subject to the very significant and net beneficial limitations of the U.S. Constitution.
This account for Germany’s greatly accelerated economic recovery. Additionally failing to recognize the economic benefits due to Germany's production and services for the purpose of directly and indirectly supported Germany’s military capabilities would be wrong.
Otherwise the major differences between Hitler’s and FDR’s economic policies were the National Socialist Party's greater enactments of socialist policies.
For example: I’m among those that completely concur with the U.S. Supreme Court’s determination that much of the National Recovery Act was unconstitutional.
But laws very similar and others not too un-similar to the drafting of the NRA’s regulations enabled Nazi Germany’s accelerated economic recovery.
I have not yet actually read the link Linda D posted at 9:58 AM today, but the link’s titles of its various sub-topics seem to promise some explanations of Nazi economic policies.

You can do lots when you are a dictatorship with total power... Like when China's stock market started to collapse this year, the major players were ordered to not sell or be arrested. They managed to halt the crash, something America couldn't do in 1929.
These totalitarian regimes have such great ideas huh? After all, it's not like there are strings attached, right? I'm sure all Germans were singing praises to Hitler's "economic miracle" in 1945 as they sat in their bombed-out living rooms after being gang-raped by Soviet troops and thinking about their dead husbands and sons.
A lot of the employment was provided by building the Autobahns, model for the Interstate highways. Going from half of tradesmen out of work to near full employment made him a popular guy. Ever wonder why the Germans enthusiastically shouted "Heil Hitler!" That's why.
