On the other hand, the economic and social policies of 1924-1929 had its weaknesses:
- Agriculture was still in decline.
- Due to the increased wages, unemployment increased and employers cut spending.
- This led to many workers being laid off.
- Although it had helped Germany's economy, Germany was dependent on the foreign investments and foreign economy.
- Public spending was much higher than the govt's income.
- This led to a deficit, which was paid for by money invested from other countries.
- Even though exports increased, imports did also.
- E.g. in 1927-28, Germany were importing more than they were exporting.
