What did Hoover do to try to alleviate the Great Depression?

History
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
8 0

As a result, he responded to the economic crisis with a goal of getting people back to work rather than directly granting relief. In October 1930, he established the President's Emergency Committee for Employment (later renamed the President's Organization for Unemployment Relief) to coordinate the efforts of local welfare agencies.

As the Great Depression worsened, however, charitable organizations were simply overwhelmed by the magnitude of the problem, and Hoover tried new ideas to stimulate the economy:

<span><span>The Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC) (1932) provided railroads, banks, and other financial institutions with money for loans.</span><span>The Glass-Steagall Act (1932) made getting commercial credit easier and released $750 million in gold reserves for additional business loans.</span><span>The Emergency Relief and Construction Act (1932) provided funds to the RFC to make loans for relief to the states and included additional money for local, state, and federal public works projects.</span></span>

Where is a modern day golden age society?
Elan Coil [88]
<span>I think western society is in its golden age. I think this because it has spread to every continent on the face of the planet. Music usually associated with western culture is pop, rock, and my of course country music. Intellectually western society usually offers free public education but colleges normally cost to money attend. You can also acquire a scholarship by other means or receive a grant and study at a college for a reduced price or entirely free. Western medicine can be good and bad. Yes we now have more powerful and concentrated medicines that can help or treat problems but a lot of them have some undesired side effects due to their chemical nature. Also modern western medicine practitioners for some reason underestimate natural medicines when natural medicine should always be considered first before taking a man made substance. In western society politics and economics run hand in hand quite a bit since powerful politicians have a big influence not just in western economy but in world economy but like any other economy western economy is mainly maintained through trade. Most westernized countries carry a form of democracy similar to the one the United States was formed under. Politicians are elected into congress by peoples votes and then after they are elected they can run for higher offices if they wish much like climbing a ladder. Social developments from western society are things like the idea that we all have rights, like a right to free speech, equal treatment, and a fair trial as long as you didn’t do a crime against the government or foreign interest group, like a bank. The United States has hundreds of charities that help people and children in need we also fund the red cross. Other social developments are things like social networking like Facebook, youtube, or reddit , they are websites that help people connect and communicate as well as share pictures or videos.</span>
