Today, we worked on our presentations and talked about our assigned blog which is over Black History Month. Jenna also made us cupcakes and mine had a guy with red hair. I guess it was good but I am not sure.What was the New Deal about (1st and 2nd) and its goals (3 R's)?Why did people criticize the New Deal?Why was FDR upset with the US Supreme Court, and what did he do to try to solve this issue?How did the New Deal help-unemployed- The Federal Emergency Relief Act helped to try and get us out of the Depression. It gave money to the states to give to helped to checks to unemployed to be able to buy necessary things. The Act helped give 15 million people jobs and a lot of money was wasted and was ended in 1934. It lost a lot of money by useless spending and made many people angry because it caused people to not have jobs because of the welfare checks, they did not have to get jobs.farmers- The Farm Security Administration helped farmers make up new farming techniques and basically took their farm and told them what to plant, how to plant it and how to harvest it. The FSA failed because farmers wanted to own and work their own land not government owned land. Cooperative farms, worked with many people farming on a stretch of land and most of the time it failed and some ended up liking it and bought their own farm land.factory workers/labor-young people- The Civilian Conservation Corps helped 18-25 year old young men by planting trees, building forests and national parks. The CCC payed 30 dollars a month and 25 went back to their families to help them.banks/business- FDIC insured the money that people put into banks. It was insurance on people’s money in banks. The FDIC has been a great add-on the banking system in the U.S. It does not insure Safe Deposit boxes or theft and fraud in banks and will not insure against Stocks. The First New Deal helped with the banks and businesses and helped to stop the suffrage of people during the Great Depression. The New Deal Strategy helped against the Depression. The First New Deal helped get the Banks up and going. The Second New Deal took place in 1935 to 1941. It helped from the bottom up and it helped the people who did not have jobs in banks.home owners- The Home Owners’ Loan Act helped people to buy houses, but the downfall was that they had to pay it off in 5 to 10 years which is to short of a time when you are getting paid not a lot of money in a month. The main bank gave long term loans for people to be able to pay off their mortgages on their houses. The HOLA was extremely racist and FDR shied away from helping African Americans.elderly-Native Americans-Stock Market- Social and Exchange Commission told brokers and bankers that they had to tell the truth about everything that they did with a customer. If they did not they could get a lot of trouble. The SEC is still around today, and helps to regulate the stock market and everything that happened in the stock market. The SEC helped to stop pooling, or the selling of a stock to other people that you sold the stock to, to make a lot of money.Describe the culture of the 1930's.FDR was the 32nd President of the United States, elected in 1932 and served a 3 term, 12 years, and the now most someone could not serve more than a 2 term, 8 years. President Roosevelt ran for New York Senate seat, and won. When FDR spoke he was standing up, but because of polio he had to have someone hold him up will he spoke so not to ruin his Presidency.Key terms:Hundred Daysfireside chatspriming the pumpdeficit spending
