Actually, what happened is that the German goverment continued its
generous social spending programs after WW I.  Unfortunately the war
reparations demanded by the Allies pretty much destroyed the German
economy.  In about 1922 or 1923 the German economy collapsed due to
rampant (100 percent per DAY) inflation, and with it went the German
government.  That provided an avenue for Hitler to get into power.
