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

History

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.
