Trump/HUD Policy to Criminalize Homelessness is Nazi Economics Reborn
Nobody wants to call this Trump/HUD policy what it actually is. In the aftermath of Adolph Hitler's "Night of the Long Knives", and the enactment of the Nuremburg Laws on race, the Nazis escalated their drive to eliminate their "undesirables", all in the name of "Making Germany Great Again". This included the Eugenics program, of mass sterilizations and Active Euthanasia against the ill and defective. It also emphasized rounding up dissidents, Communists, Catholics and Gypsies, Gays and petty criminals, immigrants and the vagrants, and having them confined to forced labor in Industrial parks, which of course was the origin of the Concentration camp system in Germany. The first extermination camps were adjuncts to the Euthanasia program, which is why the managers of those camps were recruited from the Euthanasia program. Hitler's fixation on eliminating the homeless was an outgrowth of his psychologically broken and twisted personality, as he himself became a vagrant in Vienna after WWI. Fundamentally, Hitler's founding up and enslavement of the homeless and putting them in privatized prisons, working them to death with below subsistence diets and no medical treatment, was sold to the German upper classes as a "public health measure" like pest control, to protect them from disease, and secondly, as a way of exploiting the cheapest labor possible, in order to bust Organized Labor. These are the same arguments being used today, under a sanitized version to cover their real intentions
This is what the Trump Administration is.
