Compare and Contrast President Roosevelt's proposals with his opponents:

Let's assume you know the gist of Roosevelt's New Deal programs.  If not, I'll let you research that for yourself.  Here's just a bit about the three other persons/proposals:

Francis Townsend had been a doctor in civilian practice before World War I and then enlisted as a doctor in the army during the war.  After the war, he worked in other fields.  As a private citizen, he promoted the Old Age Revolving Pension Plan, which proposed that the government pay a pension of $200 a month to every American citizen age 60 or older.  The funding was to come from a 2% tax on all transactions nationally (so, essentially, a national sales tax).  

Huey Long was a strong populist who served as governor of Louisiana from 1928 to 1932, and then Senator representing Louisiana from 1932 till 1935 (when he was assassinated).  He spoke out against bankers and wealthy elites.  For Long, President Roosevelt's New Deal didn't go far enough. His   "Share Our Wealth,"  program would have taxed people on their net assets and then redistribute that wealth to the needy.
Father Charles Coughlin also accused Roosevelt of being too cozy with the bankers.  He preached a message of social justice and established the National Union for Social Justice.  He wanted to have major industries and railroads nationalized, aiming toward more government control of resources for the public good.  He spoke out against free market capitalism.

Why is it important that we understand the structure and function of government
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The study of governmental structures must be approached with great caution, for political systems having the same kind of legal arrangements and using the same type of governmental machinery often function very differently. A parliament, for example, may be an important and effective part of a political system; or it may be no more than an institutional facade of little practical significance. A constitution may provide the framework within which the political life of a state is conducted; or it may be no more than a piece of paper, its provisions bearing almost no relationship to the facts of political life. Political systems must never be classified in terms of their legal structures alone: the fact that two states have similar constitutions with similar institutional provisions

hope this helps :D
