Answer:

Herbert Hoover was under the impression that the stock market crash of 1929 was a simple market correction, that it would go away if everybody just acted like everything was normal, and that markets simply do these things from time to time. Billboards circa 1930 with the blurb "Wasn't the depression terrible?" kind of summed up his tone-deaf approach to massive unemployment and runs on banks. He honestly believed that government intervention was not the answer.

By the time Roosevelt took office in 1933, he understood that no quick solutions were to be had. He did start a lot of public works projects, like the Works Projects Administration (which gave a lot of people short-term employment teaching, painting post office murals, and cleaning up public lands) and the Tennessee Valley Authority (which put a lot of broke farmers to work putting a utilities infrastructure in place in parts of the South, putting the pieces of a post-agricultural economy in place).

He also instituted several "bank holidays" to discourage panic-driven depositors from taking all their money out of their banks. Austerity became the new normal in America and stayed that way until the US entered World War II.

8. What was the policy of internment and who did it affect?

vesna_86 [32]

The policy of internment required the Japanese citizens of America to report to the special camps to submit to the interrogations and to pledge loyalty to America after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II.

Explanation:

The policy required the Japanese citizens of America to report to the camps irrespective of the place they resided in and the time they would have to travel.
It mainly aimed at averting espionage attempts by the Japanese. This uprooted and separated many Japanese families and made living conditions worse for them.
It affected the citizenship holders of America, Canada and Mexico who were of Japanese origin.
Immigrants were not allowed on a regular basis as they did not have much knowledge when it came to work.
