Germany never had the economy to sustain a prolonged war and it was one of the main reasons for their decline in the midst of the war.

The main reasons for their decline in war was fighting Russia, England, and the United States at the same time while having shite ally of Italy. Italy literally cost Germany the Russian war by starting their war with Greece. Germany would have had Moscow had they not had to reroute plans to help Italy in Greece.

This is a very simplified way of viewing it. The Nazis privatized, instituted protectionist policies, etc but the populace suffered from it. Rationing was very common in the pre-war period because Germany didn't have sufficient industry/agriculture to produce basic needs. They then started spending money they didn't have and quickly went into a period of immense deficit and debt.

No, the populace rejoiced from it. Before they were starving and prostituting themselves. I have no idea how you get that conclusion. All you have to do is look at GDP and you can see Germany shot off like a rocket leaving the other European nations in its dust. Quickly went into immense debt? That was from WWI...
