He was originally going to move his factory in a slave camp but then he realized he didn't want to relocate his factory. He thought if Jews were to be kept in work camps, why not his? He bought land behind the factory for his camp. He rounded up supporters in the German government. He argued and argued that his workers were kept to far away from his factory and that he had built a camp right be hide the factory. He stated that he would pay for the camp and they didn't have to pay any. Compared to Plaszow, Oskar's camp was paradise. There was much more to eat, there was no killing, and they worked more hour than Plaszow but they had much easier work. Oskar had made a safer camp.
