See @[email protected] comment above for a more precise description. The Soviets relocated / took some industrial plants partly as reparations and partly in case of allied invasion prior to the development of their own nuclear bomb.

Figured it was more a question of removing the outliers rather than using the correct kind of average. Or just changing the sample size until you get the grouping that gives you the funny answer.

Didn't the Soviets sort of cannibalize most of the german industry within the Soviet Occupation Area, prior to that area being turned into the DDR? Or was the relocation of eastern german industry a later thing?

Is this a threat to any generals bank account? I read this as mostly hitting the grunt-level troops and the GOP is pretty open about not giving a fuck about those guys.

He taught me English, so I can sort of blame him for my burgerbrain and the fact that I was an insufferable lib from 15-22
