That is not what National Socialism that the Germans stood for was about.

The word "socialism" has different meanings to different people.

Marx saw socialism as the phase where the government would control everything until a communal society could be acheived, and the "state would wither away."

Of course, it was always a pipe dream.

The "national socialism" of the Germans, OTOH, had a different meaning and context.

"Nationalsim" was a nation of people who are related by blood (similar to what the Japanese have, or the Vietnamese, or the Nigerians, etc. -- most nations around the world).

"Socialism" was this nation of related people standing together in one society, where they would look out for each other.

It was not a social welfare state.

It was not a government owns and controls everything sort of Marxist idea.

It was a "look out for your brother" kind of idea. Do what is best for yourself, but also keep in mind you should do what is best for your people.
