The correct answer is B) He wanted to deal with the problems of those unable to work at all: retirees, the disabled, dependent mothers, and children.


The Social Security Act was one of several different federal agencies created by Franklin D. Roosevelt as part of his New Deal policies. The New Deal program was supposed to help America recover from the Great Depression by developing employment programs and providing direct financial assistance to American citizens. In this sense, the individuals who needed the financial assistance the most were people who were unable to work. This explains why the Social Security Act was structured with these people in mind.

dlinn [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can answer the following.

I think this quote refers to the Panama Revolution of November 1903. Let's remember that United States President Theodore Roosevelt supported Panama to get its independence from Colombia.

The federal government had many economic and political interests in the region, specifically, it wanted the control of the Panama Canal that the French had started to construct at the end of the 1800s.

Roosevelt created the corollary of the Monroe doctrine in which the United States sent a clear message to European superpowers saying that it was only the United States the ones that were going to intervene in the foreign issues of Latin America. No more European nations.
