The description of Mr. Rockefeller as ''robber baron'' is definitely a negative characterization. The reason why it is a negative characterization is that it insinuates that Mr. Rockefeller was a man of great power, and used its power to gain more wealth and even more power by stealing from the people bellow him in the hierarchy.

Now, the stealing part can be seen from two perspectives. The first one by using force, and taking the money or the possessions of the people. The second one being by stealing through making murky business and illegal things behind closed doors.

Was wpa successful? why or why not?
valkas [14]

Headed by Harry Hopkins, the WPA provided paid jobs to the unemployed during the Great Depression in the United States, while building up the public infrastructure of the US, such as parks, schools and roads. Created by President Franklin Roosevelt to relieve the economic hardship of the Great Depression, this national works program (renamed the Work Projects Administration beginning in 1939) employed more than 8.5 million people on 1.4 million public projects before it was disbanded in 1943. The PWA spent over $6 billion but did not succeed in returning the level of industrial activity to pre-depression levels. Though successful in many aspects, it has been acknowledged that the PWA's objective of constructing a substantial number of quality, affordable housing units was a major failure.

How did woodrow wilson justify the creation of the new field of public administration?
Mashutka [201]
Wilson believes that the study of public administration is legal because it improves organization and provides methods to governmental offices to be more precise and efficient. Woodrow Wilson indicates the Pendleton Civil Service Reforms Act (1883) as an development to government offices but also adds that the methods to which this new, more selective workforce should abide to is also worthwhile studying. For him, the study of public administration has two goals: "...first, what government can properly and successfully do, and, secondly, how it can do these proper things with the utmost possible efficiency and at the least possible cost either of money or energy" (Stillman, 6). The 28th President have confidence in that this area is explicitly critical to the United States because of the country's various levels of and that studying public administration would enhance interdependence and cooperation between these levels.
