They've also ran a few state-level scams and Ponzi schemes to have the funds for that military and other spending.

Their business model was - step 1, cheat to have money, step 2, use money to rearm, step 3, conquer and loot, thus get funds that way, step 4 probably would be to force some peace, then rearm, then rinse and repeat, but they didn't manage to capture a few strategic areas they needed in time. So they had fuel shortages, food shortages, and ultimately lost.

Their system also only ran as far as it did because of the so called Mefo-bills

These fit under "state-level scams".

EDIT: Still, while I wasn't going to compliment them or something, it can be a valid strategy for survival to use anything to accumulate some operational power ; I can see a few nations (not all of them have recognized states) on the map for which it may be necessary to survive in the following decade. But Nazis didn't have to take such risks, it was ideological for them that theft and robbery are better than honest work.
