Hitler's domestic policy was quite good. Actively countering Bolshevism that threatened Germany also good policy (this is how Jews ended up on concentration camps).

Hitler’s domestic policies led Germany and Europe to disaster in the long-term. Nazi Germany had huge deficits caused by an unsustainable rearming program, both preparing and justifying the future Nazi aggressions. The repression led German citizens to lose more and more rights and liberties.
And, thanks to Hitler, not only Bolshevism went from the Volga to the Elbe, along with the USSR becoming a superpower, but large parts of the Deutschtum were lost forever.
Hitler didn’t have good internal policy. It was so bad that Allied bombing in Germany initially lead to increases in production. The bombing gave local and regional officials excuses to ignore the orders from the Nazis and do what was useful. When the Allied bombing first reached Germany there was still large art projects and monuments being built despite wars on multiple fronts.
Certain projects popular with the public got government support no matter how useless, such as subsidized trains for public travel despite this holding up movement of military supplies. At the same time essential projects with little obvious face, such as building better water and sewage, didn’t get support even before the war.

To reiterate what @JM1234 says, all part of keeping the populace happy re. Nazism: Kraft durch Freude. Part of that being a certain savings stamp scheme. The problem being that not paying so much as one week on such, the whole stamp book was defaulted and all money paid was kept by the state, but that was the least of said payers’ problems: there was that for those who faithfully paid into said scheme without missing one single payment. Not one civilian saver received their KdF-wagen.
So much for Hitler’s ‘domestic policy’.
When your precious Shitler didn’t care about his own people: but conned them in such a way…!
