“Sacrifice”
The word that runs along the bottom of this poster is “sacrifice.” That word is pictured just below an open hand and two coins falling directly onto the word. The meaning of this poster was to convince Germans to not waste their money on frivolous things but instead to give generously to the community in need. The Nazis wanted the Germans to make a personal sacrifice to push forward the common good. Typically, when those sacrifices were made, the donations were used to fuel the military complex which would ultimately attempt to take over the world. For many years the German people ignored their worsening economic situation which was led by Hitler.
