Nazi had to stop several times the euthanizing of handicapped and retarded because of the public backslash.

It worked because the majority of German doctors were full on board but there were talks of that way before nazi got in power.

I believe even in the USA there was program like sterilization of « degenerates » and « negro » At these times.

(Édit : After checking the source, these programs went on from 1929 so 4 years before nazi were elected, and lasted until 1974 !!!)

I’m not sure all of that is in any way comparable to a company abusing its monopolistic position to enforce rules that will benefit it.
