Which they never did. They were supposed to repay slave-laborers until the
fifties and then stop existing. However, they did nothing like that but started
investing and reinvesting, with nice profits. Supposedly, they only did that to
increase the money for the victims of good ole IG Farben. Yet their stocks are
among the most solid ones in Germany and hardly any Auschwitz-survivors are
still alive.
One more reason to be ashamed being a german, I guess...
