The German business community was willing to accept from the Nazi
regime economic policies that they never would have accepted from an
SPD government. When the SPD was in power, their policies were much
more cautious than the ones that the Nazis would follow later on.

Would or would not have accepted
if an SPD-lead government had attempted to implement. And the reason for
that IMO, is that the Nazis had also taken care to smash the trade unions,
thereby alleviating any fears on the part of big business in Germany, that
such policies would lead to excessive (from their standpoint) wage hikes.
The Nazis were able to, in effect, offer social democracy without Social
Democrats. And the business community was willing to put up with this.
