I suppose this would be news to those Jewish merchants whose businesses
were destroyed or confiscated by the Nazis.

Since the Nazis received such a large percentage of the popular vote in
Germany, how did the "capitalists" put him in power.

It is clear from your statements that you are ignorant of these matters.
They were dealt with in the mainstream media (NY Times, etc.)  - no friends
of Laissez Faire  -  recently, and it was found that big businesses did not
support the Nazis until it became apparent that they were going to be
in charge.

For those who are interested, relevant issues are discussed lucidly in 
Ludwig von Mises' Omnipotent Government.
