There are several New Deal era programs still in effect today. One of the most consolidated one is the Social Security.

President Roosevelt (FDR) launched a series of programs which aimed to reverse de effect of the great Depression. Many of these are still in place today: Federal National Mortage Association (Fannie Mae), National Labor Relations Board among others, but the Social Security program proved crucial to the era and stood the test of time. Back then when Americans retired many had grim future since no further income was set up for them. In 1935 FDR signed the Social Security Act in which the U.S. government established and agency to register citizens for benefits, collect taxes from employers and employees to fund these benefits. This program helped the elderly, the unemployed and dependent children.

Many New Deal programs remain active, with some still operating under the original names, including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC), the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), and the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA).

Which king is accurately described by these statements?

DaniilM [7]

All these statements describe King Louis XIV of France.

He called himself the Sun King because he considered himself as important as the sun itself. Louis XIV is known to have had a very high opinion of himself. This is why he chose the sun as his symbol. Le Roi Soleil (the Sun King) was a way to present himself as a ruler who knew and saw everything (like the sun) and could not fail. He also felt a strong connection to the Greek Sun God, Apollo.
During his seventy-two year reign he claimed the divine rights of kings. 72 years is the longest time any monarch has ruled over a European kingdom in history. Louis XIV believed he was the representative of God on earth, and therefore decided that the absolute powers of kingship were a sacred, god-given right.

He moved his court from Paris to Versailles, where he and his courtiers lived in splendor and excess. Louis XIV frequently changed residences, but in 1682 he settled with his court in the Palace of Versailles, making it a symbol of French riches and prestige.

He did little or nothing to help the working people with everyday struggles. Many of his subjects thought that Louis XIV put his personal interests before the country's. During the War of Spanish Succession for example (1701-14), he kept France at war to make sure his grandson, Philip V, would gain control over the Spanish Empire, while the cost of war caused famine among the people.
