How was communism the vehicle that allowed Hitler to gain power? By being an opposition he could use to sway his people to Fascism?

But I love them all the same.

Then comes a deficit commission and Social Security and unemployment insurance is gone and you have a significant population of desperate unemployed people starving to death on the streets.
