    I am deeply sorry for you that you ignore the difference between a concentration camp and a P.OW. camp which belong to different universe : the world of the Geneva convention for one, and hell for the other. And even there were for P.O. W. two categories of camps : stalags for all exept officers, and oflags for officers. As you know, officers enjoy serious advantages according to the Geneva convention, no obligation to work for instance, and with this free time they can play any economic game they like. But I confirm that economy has no room in a concentration camp in WWII.

      You're pointlessly nitpicking . Better tell us more about French wartime economy or something.

        Is it so hard to recognize that you were awfully wrong?

          You obviously have to reread "The Structure and Interpretation of VetLegion's Posts" I'm affraid, especially volumes 3-8. It's all explained there.

            No they do not. Prices are fixed when a country is in a state of war.
