Did anybody listen to the voiceover? It was a Nazi official who declared this plan as grotesque. In our view of the Nazis, this is not nearly as grotesque as other actions they took during the war. Listen before you react.
Very interesting video. Kinda sounds an awful lot like the Federal Reserve bank... A private bank that for some reason has an infinite amount of money that we have to pay back with interest. I can print my own wacky money at home! Hell, I can start just by using my monopoly money. On a serious note though, people need to understand that the "Federal Reserve" is a private bank. Start looking into it. It all stinks to high hell!
It's like, how can you borrow money from yourselves and then pay yourselves an interest payment, too? ~ That's ridiculous. Could you imagine if it wasn't a Public Trust? Nah
The Federal Reserve is not a private bank. It's part private and part public. It's the public part has "an infinite amount of money" is the public part.
You need to go back to your research. Your description of how the Fed works is very sophomoric. The actual money supply is far in excess of the printed supply. Most transactions nowadays are done electronically.
The Federal Reserve finally had some competition to see which one could destroy a county faster - the Federal Reserve easily won the agenda in 1907 & in 1929, interestingly both WW made the staff of Federal Reserve very wealthy 🤔
No country has the liquidity to stage a war, they must borrow from the banksters. They love war and have no qualms funding both sides. Only the banksters win in war. Debt is their weapon and now, even without war, they flood the world with their fake 'money' causing inflation. Basically, the more of something there is, the less valuable it is. Having savings in a bank is insanity. Fractional reserve lending alone is theft, let alone causing the kind of hyper inflation we see today

Back in the 1980's PBS showed a series called Private Schultz (or Schulz) which was the semi fictional account of how the Germans counterfeited the Pound. It was a very good series and at one time was on UA-cam but is gone now because of copyright issues.
Well - it was my understanding that here in England there was a similar but more discrete operation producing funds/notes to fund the resistance and underground. My father said the person who took the funds behind enemy lines was known as “the Carpetbagger”!! He always spoke with the greatest respect and awe of the man who did the engraving and how the different functions took place in very separate locations unknown to each operative. His descriptions in the 1950s was of a much more discrete operation. But then that’s was the English way!

Again, another excellent video! Imagine the skills needed to produce forgeries! The inmates had to be exact or perish, Now, those required skills, under those circumstances, to produce flawless notes was enough motivation to gain another day without execution. They may have been given cigarettes, newspapers, better rations, and a ping-pong table, but they were quite aware of their worth depended on their ability to provide flawless forgeries. Without that, their knowledge of what was happening guaranteed their demise. And, obviously, a few survived the war and may have been used in criminal cases concerning the SS who planned to exterminate them in short order and to be witnesses in the prosecution for their jailer's crimes.
There was a British TV show about German counterfeiting the pound. I remember it beginning with the British dropping ration coupons to which the German officer says they haven't started ration yet. Private Shultz (1981) played by Michael Elphick, 6 episodes.
