We find ourselves amid a controversy which aims at more than victory of one or another country. In fact, it is a struggle of two worlds. Forty-six million English rule and govern a total territory of roughly 40,000,000 square kilometres in this world. Eighty-five million Germans have a living space of hardly 600,000 square kilometres and these only through their own initiative. This earth, however, was not distributed by Providence or by Almighty God.
This distribution is being taken care of by the peoples themselves and this distribution chiefly took place in the past 300 years at a time when our German people were domestically unconscious and torn apart.
The right to live constitutes a claim of fundamental nature. The right to live includes the right to the soil, which alone gives life. For this claim peoples have even fought when a lack of wisdom threatened to interfere with their relationship, for they knew that even bloody sacrifices are better than the gradual dying off of nations. National unity was our first demand. Piece by piece and move by move this was realized.
Haves & Have-Nots. Whoever has not anything will not get anything either. All my life I have been a have-not. I count myself as one of their number and have fought for them. Now again, I enter the fight as the representative of the havenots. I will never recognize the claims of others to that which they have gained by force and robbery. In no case will I permit this claim to apply to what has been taken from us.
It is interesting to observe the mode of living of the rich. They have so-called democracy in the Anglo-French world. In reality, capitalism reigns supreme, that is, there is a band of several hundred people who possess unmeasurable fortunes and who, because of the peculiar construction of the State, are more or less completely independent and free.
It is said this means rule by the people. But when you look closer, the people as such have not an opinionthere is no difference between them.
Now, one might suppose that in lands of freedom and democracy everybody lived in plenty. The contrary is true. Nowhere is the standard of the masses lower. England for decades has had two-and-a-half million unemployed. Rich America has twelve to thirteen million unemployed annually.
These people, to give but one example, have the possibility of pocketing up to 160 percent dividends from the ammunition industry. They say that if these German methods gain ground and prove victorious all this will stop. They are right. I believe six per cent sufficient.
It's natural for the English leaders to say they do not want their world to go under because they fear Germany's new ideas may spring over to England.
They say, "We don't like these methods." What were those methods? I am proud that the revolution occurred in 1933 without a single window being smashed.
