Mark the thieves who dare to hide,
What belongs to Reich's great stride.
Let them serve as lessons clear,
Teaching what we all hold dear.
Tanya was humming while she examined the processing center's weekly reports. Her melody didn't falter when she spotted the discrepancy, but her smile took on a different quality - like sunlight glinting off a razor's edge.
"Fascinating," she said warmly, comparing manifests. "Gold fillings from only one in ten officers processed? When our intelligence suggests at least four in ten had dental work?" She tapped her pen thoughtfully. "Either we're processing a statistically improbable number of officers with perfect teeth, or..."
The processing center's chief administrator began to explain demographic variations. Tanya's laughter cut him short. "Oh, how wonderfully instructive! This will make such an efficient lesson."
Count the cost of secrets kept,
See the price of faith unwept.
Those who steal will serve to show,
How the Reich makes purpose grow.
She gathered the entire processing staff - administrators, sorters, and workers alike. Her smile never dimmed as she explained their collective failure to meet processing quotas.
"But why waste good workers?" she asked brightly. "We'll implement a beautifully simple solution. From now on, each processing team's daily rations will be calculated from their recovery quotas." Her warm eyes swept the room. "If gold and precious metals are so rare among our processed officers, surely you won't mind subsisting on similarly modest resources?"
"After all," she added, beginning a new verse of her lullaby, "hunger sharpens the eyes and steadies the hands. You'll be amazed how many valuable materials you discover when your meals depend on them!"
Hunger makes the vision clear,
Every treasure will appear.
Empty bellies fill our stores,
As the Reich marches toward more.
By evening, recovery rates had tripled. Tanya hummed appreciatively while reviewing the updated figures.
"See how elegant it is?" she explained to her surviving staff. "No need for complex oversight. No wasted manpower on inspections. Just a direct, efficient connection between performance and survival." She smiled warmly at the day's gathered materials - gold teeth gleaming in their sorting trays. "Those who prove trustworthy earn their bread. Those who don't... well, they feed efficiency in other ways."
She paused in her humming to sample her dinner - earned by the day's improved numbers. "And as for our mining operations..." Her smile widened. "The same beautiful principle applies. Each mine's rations will match their output. Natural selection through nutrition!"
When the lesson's firmly learned,
And each meal is rightly earned,
Reich's great purpose carries on,
Through the hunger and the dawn.
The day's final report was deeply satisfying. Tanya added her concluding notes:
"Resource recovery optimized through dietary motivation. Oversight costs eliminated through natural incentives. Processing efficiency achieved through practical Darwinism. Reich advances."
The machinery of necessity grew stronger through proper motivation. Even hunger served efficiency, when properly applied.
