Forty-five of them, actually. "Employment." "The gig economy." "Financial responsibility." "Entry level." "Competitive market." "Bootstrapping." "Hustle culture."

In einer schweren Krise wurde die NSDAP 1932 zur mit Abstand stärksten Partei gewählt. Bald konnte sie die Macht übernehmen und auf wachsende gesellschaftliche Zustimmung bauen.
