I would like to suggest a good, balanced article by Leon Degrelle on the Third Reich and its social revolution. The article is 41 pages long, so I would suggest printing it out and, for those who are interested, devoting a couple of hours to what really occurred in Hitler's Germany when the National Socialists came to power (it's a good introductory piece) -- especially when one compares the social, economic, cultural miracle that took place within the first years of the Third Reich with the utter misery and failure of the Weimar Republic.

I think I had read that one on the barnes website. interesting discussion of why the SA had to be contained.

Actually, this article does not discuss the SA but gives a comparative analysis of the failure of the Weimar republic with the glorious years of the Third Reich when Germans were healthy, self-confident and strong.
