<h2>How effective was the New Deal?</h2>

FDR is praised as a brilliant leader, but not because of the New Deal. The New Deal was ineffective and even affected the economy, but Roosevelt's efforts and maniacal optimism were contagious and gave the public hope that he was genuinely concerned.

First of all, I think the history on the Great Depression, FDR, and the economy in the 1930s and 1940s is a complete disaster. The commonplace "everybody knows that" narrative holds that Roosevelt lifted spirits, tried to put everyone to work, cared about the common man while Hoover did not, was prevented from assisting the nation as he desired by the supreme court, and that when World War II broke out, the massive government stimulus and control of the economy demonstrated the validity of Keynesian economic theory. The supreme court did succeed in thwarting his initiatives, and he was successful in inspiring people to trust in themselves—no minor accomplishment. However, the second reality in this widely accepted myth is that World War II actually took place.

What he did that worked

FDR was a magnificent politician with amazing drive and infectious optimism, all of which the country psychologically needed. He was, however, in matters of economics and his understanding of Stalin and the USSR, a dilettante. I personally believe the man fits the description if you were to do a search on “narcissistic personality disorder,” but that was hugely beneficial during the depression and WW2. For example, instead of explaining to the American people what a grave and dangerous situation the banks and loan institutions were in and that people must stop making runs on the banks, in his cocky and friendly manner he simply announced a bank “holiday” and the panic subsided. He had that kind of psychological effect on people. He also hired some—a small number, but those engaged were very appreciative—to work in photography, painting, documenting oral histories, or building of roads, swimming pools, or other infrastructure. Conservatives vehemently opposed such jobs initiatives, and economists today claim it wasn't enough to affect the macroeconomy, but it was appreciated and viewed as a comforting sign that he cared.

What he did that didn’t work

Hoover's ideas, his own, and a good deal of what could be nicely described as experimentation were used in part to inspire FDR's New Deal. Demagoguery against "cut-throat competition," the profit motive, and capitalism in general was another activity of his. He particularly liked the National Industrial Recovery Act. It may sound unusual, but it formed and made legal corporate cartels with the intention of lowering competition while increasing salaries and profits. This had the effect of discouraging enterprises that were stronger when the slump hit—better management, brand loyalty, R&D, smaller debt, etc.—from outcompeting one another. Additionally, salaries were artificially raised, which raised the unemployment rate. Here's a basic yet effective illustration: Let's imagine a company can hire 20 workers in a normal economy, or 24 at 80% of what the workers would want to be paid in a normal economy, but they are grateful they have a job while many others don't. Imagine if this company could only afford to recruit 16 employees and had to pay them 120 percent of what both the employer and the employees would consider to be fair in a normal economic environment. With unemployment rates between 15 and 25 percent, which is hardly what you'd call normal economic conditions, unemployment was by far the largest issue throughout the slump. The Supreme Court overturned the National Industrial Recovery Act and other FDR policies that artificially boosted unemployment in the "sick chicken case" known as Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States. Basically, the federal government shouldn't have interfered with intrastate trade, salaries, or pricing.

1. The documentary begins with a news headline announcing what? 2. Where was Carmen Miranda born? Portugal 3. Brazil received ma
Aneli [31]

Answer and Explanation:

1. You did not inform the document to which the question refers, but in view of the other questions we can infer that the documentary announces the life of Carmen Miranda.

2. Carmen Miranda was born in Portugual, but was raised in Brazil, a place she considered her true homeland.

3. During the 20th century, Brazil received immigrants from all over the world, but mainly from Europe, the Middle East and Japan.

4. Carmem Miranda grew up listening to popular Brazilian music like samba and bossa nova.

5. Carmen Miranda had the ability to incorporate all popular Brazilian rhythms and maintain the characteristics of Brazil in a commercial and completely international music. She was able to convey the joy, rhythm and animation of the Brazilian people in a very genuine, correct and respectable way.

6. She wore a flowing dress and a fruit-hat turban. This can be considered cultural appropriation because it is a traditional clothing worn by black women in Bahia, a Brazilian state. Carmen Miranda was neither Bahian nor black, but she was using something completely intrinsic to that culture.

7. She went to New York, where she performed on Broadway.

8. She said that she knew very little of the English language and that she could speak some 20 words, among them: money and hot-dog.

9. She stated that she was not "Americanized" and that she was still as Brazilian as anyone who was born in the country. She said that, because Brazilian criticism used to call her that, something she didn't like.

10. Carmen Miranda used to play roles of colorful, loud and loud Latin women that attracted a lot of attention. This can be problematic in two ways. Firstly, this reinforced stereotypes of Latin women, especially Brazilian women. Secondly, it limited her as an actress and hindered her from expanding the talent she possessed.
