The rationale for setting aside more for accumulation and less for consumption was the DDR's version of the US "trickle down" economics. The DDR's accumulation theory is logical. America's trickle down theory needs the American population to be stupid and know nothing of how capital flows, like water, to the lowest point, meaning the lowest priced labor and raw inputs. Americans, in their blind nationalism and racism, believe their country is a shining city on a hill, and that the job creators, meaning the owners of capital, could never act against the interest of the "people." Trickle down economics saw all that capital either offshored or automated, and the believers in the purity of the job creators had to obtain credit cards to pay for food and shelter.
