One way was that the confederation government had no way of taxing the states or coining money. That way, they would not be able to collect any taxes from the people if the people in the states didn't want those taxes. This was a way to prevent any possibility of having a corrupt government introduce taxes that are disliked.

Another thing was the idea that the government would only deal with things that protect the colonies from outside influences and provide military support. They could not do anything outside of that because their main goal was representing the colonies in affairs with other countries, so they didn't have the possibility of bothering the people at home.<span />

Sliva [168]
Roosevelt's New Deal programs worked to aid the rural poor, as well as restore soil quality and establish better farming practices.

The Resettlement Administration and Farm Security Administration were agencies created to help poor people in rural areas.

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), the Soil Erosion Service (later known as the Soil Conservation Service), and the Works Progress Administration (WPA) were involved in improving land conditions.  Working in conjunction with the National Forestry Service, the CCC and WPA participated in planting millions of trees to act as windbreaks, to prevent the kind of blowing erosion of soil that occurred in the Dust Bowl.
