    • The differences between the National Socialist 'People's Car' (the Volkswagen) and the Socialist Unity Party's 'Satellite' (the Trabant, named in honour of the Soviet satellite Sputnik) merit an analysis of modernist Utopias beyond the confines of this article. It should be noted, however, that the Nazi celebration of private transportation and consumerism entailed an egali-tarianism of a different sort from the SED's prescriptive abstinence Oxford chapter 2

    • Subsidizing goods rather than people benefits individuals with higher incomes, who pay the same prices for products as those with lower disposable incomes. Such a policy only reinforces existing social differentiation while encouraging waste by distorting pricing systems. Because bread was so cheap, for example, it was widely used as fodder, especially for pigs.
