The aim of the New Deal was for the government to create Alphabet Agencies that would disburse money into providing jobs for the poor and unemployed. These led to action in helping industry and agriculture, resolving the banking crisis, more money spent on goods, an increased demand for these goods and increase in the production. In order for Roosevelt to be so successful he had to earn the trust of the US people. The population was used to being ignored and to suffer alone as Hoover left the economy to fix itself, which was ineffective.…

During Herbert Hoover's presidency, the Depression was fueled by the administration's hesitance to increase government spending. However, by financing many individual groups and agencies, the Roosevelt administration was able to get more money out for public use. The administration used strategies like giving out the social security checks mentioned in Document E to help redistribute much of the wealth in America to the working class. This was an important step in changing the government from a passive bystander to an active assistant that was working to help eliminate the problems of the Great Depression. This change, brought about by Roosevelt's New Deal, was vital in asserting Roosevelt's abilities to disable the Depression and is a good example of the effectiveness of Roosevelt's…
The New Deal was more of a positive rather than a negative. Even though it gave the government more power than the constitution allowed, it was made up for because it put America back into work. If this had not been done, the organizations would not have made all these improvements to society and America could still be jobless if someone hadn’t stepped in and gave America the cure that we so desperately…

Relief, recovery, and reform of the economy were the main reasons the New Deals were created The First New Deal was a top-down plan, like Progressivism, that Roosevelt made involving the banks and businesses.

There were different opinions surrounding the effectiveness of this New Deal. According to history professor Roger Biles, the New Deal was an effective answer to the Great Depression.

This helped the American people because it gave the banks time to stabilize themselves and then reopen when they could run properly.…
