IE you will have to find other sources to pay for all of the government hand outs or simply change the structure into what the nazis became.No, they actually voted in Hindenburg, admittedly because the NSDAP was growing in prominence and the conservatives and socialists figured out that Hindenburg was the lesser evil and united, but political machinations led to Hindenburg appointing Hitler as chancellor. And in the last multi-party elections in March 1933, they only got 43.91% of the vote, and that's even with massive levels of voter intimidation on the part of the SA, SS, and Stahlhelm.
Also, claiming they "turned on the jews" is fundamentally misleading in that it implies the Nazis were ever on friendly terms with the Jews. While the progression of the Holocaust was a lot slower than a lot of people think, with the Ghettoes only coming about in 1939 and the death camps only started around 1942, it was clear pretty early on the Nazis weren't going to be friendly to the Jews, and it started in April 1933, ironically enough, with a boycott of Jewish-owned businesses. Quickly, Jewish businesses were targeted for closure, Jews were forbidden from everything from the civil service (including medicine and law) to running fucking farms. and many were even stripped from attending college (along with courses being forbidden from discussing Weimar-era ideals of democracy and equality.) And it all went downhill from there. Literally the only bright spot until 8 May 1945 was around the time of the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and that was entirely because they didn't want any adverse publicity for this celebration of the superiority of the Aryan race, at least none more than Jesse Owens would end up giving them by winning four gold medals and proving that, yes, Black men could easily best the Aryan Superman.
Seriously, this is pretty easy stuff to look up.
