Before reading this I really did not know that labor and that people were forced into slavery during the late 1930&#8217;s early 1940&#8217;s. I really just through people got send to camps and worked there or got killed. Not only that but it was interesting to see the sort of hierarchy that came from these works. For example, the Ostarbeiter obviously had it the worst and\u00a0I really could not believe they were treated completely like slaves. I could never imagine surviving on such little amounts of food and such poor living conditions. I think the most shocking thing is that depending on where you were from, either the east or the west it really determined your whole life and how you would be treated by the Nazi party. It is very difficult for me to come to terms with all of this.<\/p>\n<p>These people were clearly treated horrible and forced into working and living in horrible conditions. However, if you look at the Germany economy this really could not have been better for them. They were able to bring in foreign workers that were forced labor and not paid in order to expand the city and improve the economic structure of the city. \u00a0I really do not agree what happened but it is smart to use the people to help build the economy. <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-2007-0074_IG-Farbenwerke_Auschwitz-300x202.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17938 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-2007-0074_IG-Farbenwerke_Auschwitz-300x202-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"202\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 6 has provided me with the most information so far from this book.
