Oh Hitler did that first. The entire reason he was doing lebensraum and “reclaiming” German territories was to steal money to keep the government functioning and build the German military. It’s kind of wild. He probably could have told the world to stick their war reparations where the sun don’t shine and managed some sort of functional government. But nope he went full meth head instead. Which is probably uh because he was one.
