I always found her stories fascinating and her warning that people will trade freedom for safety and security. She was in her late 70s last time I spoke with her and she still had a soft spot for Hitler- though she knew he was a villain because she also remembered all too well how it felt to be starving after the fall of the Weimar Republic and the subsequent economic collapse. We throw around the word fascist so often I fear we will be like that frog in the boiling water. <br /><br />Interesting side note...I asked her what is the best way to protect your family from economic collapse? I knew investments would be instantly worthless, but thought maybe land would be of value...she said none of it protected you because you couldn't pay the taxes on anything too big. Perhaps a small farm, a trade that is of value to someone because once it takes a wheelbarrow of cash to buy a loaf of bread, you're best bet is the black market/barter economy for survival. <br /><br />I'll have to check out the books. As you can tell by my way too long comment, I love history!Elizabeth Seckmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00045076826326574984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8458581324926992168.post-79817144951073372742021-01-26T16:37:47.397-08:002021-01-26T16:37:47.397-08:00Yeah, definitely a lot of "what if" mome...Yeah, definitely a lot of "what if" moments in history then.
