What was the New Deal(1st and 2nd) and it's 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- PWA- Created new jobs, especially construction jobs like building schools, dams, roads, bridges, hospitals, courthouses, and much more. The USHA gave over 650,000 jobs to low income people. These jobs were contruction projects for apartment complexes for the poor. It was a good program that basically paid for itself. The USHA led to the PWA. The NYA is the NAtional Youth Administration.Civil Works Administration- Created November 8, 1933. Under control of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration.Cost over $200 million a month to pay for all of the supplies and workers. The budget was only $400 million, and the CWA had to be disbanded after spending over a billion dollars in a five month period. Many politicians greatly criticized and opposed the CWAfarmers- A bit of the RFC aided the farmers. Farming organizations were granted loans from the RFC. These loans were exected to be off in the years to come, because the loans were given out in the hopes that once the organizations could get back on their feet, they would be able to pay the loans off, and then some to help the government and society in the future.factory workers/labor-young people- NYA is the National Youth Administration. The NYA was a New Deal administration that focused on young people. It gave them jobs. It operated from 1935 to 1943. It targeted young men and women alike to get jobs and go to school and to seek a higher education. The program gave financial aide to people who needed it to get a higher education. The NYA offered kids jobs at the colleges that they would attend that would allow them to work for pay to help out the family and pay for college while also getting an education.Some people did not like this organization because of the use of the taxpayers dollars to pay for all of these people going to school. Some felt that t had no effect, but over 2.5 million students were enrolled in the program.banks/business- The Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC) was basically a bailout to businesses, banks, railroads, farm associations, and others. All of these industries were given loans that would hopefully be repaid in full, and would eventually be able to do more for the government when they get back on top.home owners- The USHA gave over 650,000 jobs to low income people. These jobs were contruction projects for apartment complexes for the poor. It was a good program that basically paid for itself. The USHA led to the PWA. Over 22,000 housing units were built for low income families and the poor, have of which was to be reserved for blacks. The whites did not like this and racial segregation was strung back up. This led to blacks forming their own communities which led to ghettos.elderly- Social Security Administration- Created by Roosevelt on August 14, 1935. It is a tax taken out on your income that goes into your personal account and when you retire, you can claim that money that is being put into your account. Taxes were girst taken on October 14, 1936. Covers disease survivors as in veterans, old age, and the disabled. Obviously still around today.Native AmericansDescribe the culture of the 1930's.Key terms:Hundred Daysfireside chats- Fireside chats were informal monthly addresses that FDR gave from the start of his term until the end of his term. He also had weekly addresses that were brief compared to the fireside chats. The purpose of these chats was to gain the attention of Americans, and to inform them what was going on, and how the rest of the country was rebuilding itself.The fireside chats had a large impact on the nation. He gained many followers as Roosevelt told people to have faith and to stay positive. He gave them an incentive to have hope and to do their part to further help the country.priming the pumpdeficit spendingFireside chats to me probably would have been the equivalent to my families TV program that we try to catch every week. I can tell you now that I don't have much of a fancy to listen to Obama talk about how much more of our money he's going to spend every week.
