Use the excerpt from Huey P. Long's "Share Our Wealth" speech, given on March 12, 1935, to answer the question. And they proceed

ed with the NRA. Everything from a peanut stand to a power house had to have a separate book of rules and laws to regulate what they did. If a peanut stand started to parch a sack of goobers for sale, they had to be careful to go through the rule book. One slip and he went to jail. A little fellow who pressed a pair of pants went to jail because he charged 5 cents under the price set in the rule book. So they wrote their NRA rule book, codes, laws, etc. They got up over 900 of them. One would be as thick as an unabridged dictionary and as confusing as a study of the stars. It would take 40 lawyers to tell a shoe-shine stand how to operate and be certain he didn't go to jail. In 3–5 sentences, analyze Huey Long’s criticism of the New Deal. Cite specific details in the excerpt to support your analysis.
