Question

Create an argument FOR or AGAINST Roosevelt's approach to relieving the effects in the Great Depression (federal government involvement)

Answer 1

Answer: The New Deal was a set of domestic policies enacted under President Franklin D. Roosevelt that dramatically expanded the federal government’s role in the economy in response to the Great Depression. Historians commonly speak of a First New Deal (1933-1934), with the “alphabet soup” of relief, recovery, and reform agencies it created, and a Second New Deal (1935-1938) that offered further legislative reforms and created the groundwork for today’s modern social welfare system. It was the massive military expenditures of World War II, not the New Deal, that eventually pulled the United States out of the Great Depression.
