9. The vast majority of German workers under Hitler and the Nazis

May 8

saw their wages decrease during Nazi reign. The Nazis outlawed any independent worker movements and replaced them with state sanctioned (Nazi) approved organizations. These state approved groups were not pro-worker but were pro-production. The less you pay each worker, the more workers you can "employ." It wasn't slave labor but not the greatest situation for workers either.
