What did the new deal accomplish?

Answer 1

The new deal was designed to bring relief, recovery, and reform to America during the Great Depression. There were tons of projects- from industrial works, like creating dams, to recreational works, like building schools. Some new deal programs helped farmers keep their land, such as the AAA program. Some aided the unemployed such as the FERA program. These programs not only provided new buildings ect. but they also employed people to construct them. However, don't forget that all this funding had to come from somewhere so there was excessive government spending. Here's a link to a website with some of the programs listed and what they were meant to accomplish. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The "first" New Deal dealt with mostly immediate measures of getting the unemployed back to work and providing welfare and recovery. As the Depression continued, FDR began to feel the heat of his critics, both left (Huey Long, Share the Wealth, Charles Townsend, socialists) and right (conservative businessmen, laissez-faire supporters, anti NIRA regulations). To combat these critics, FDR proposed a new set of economic and social measures to fight unemployment and poverty, and to provide real jobs to decrease the unemployment rate. Examples of the Second New Deal included the WPA, which was the major relief agency of the New Deal. It was to provide work, not welfare. The major new piece of legislation during the Second New Deal was the Social Security Act of 1935. It provided insurance for the aged, unemployed, and disabled and it was based on contributions by both employers and employees.

Answer 3

The New Deal was the name given to FDR's attempt to get the nation out of the Depression. It involved many acts passed by Congress and many governmental agencies that were created. Some were successful, some were not. FDR was not an economic expert. But what gave him the support of most of the people was the fact that he would try something. If it didn't work, he would try something else. Not everyone supported the New Deal. It created a larger, more expensive government and entered into more direct association with people, society, and business. Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of the New Deal was to ease the economic hardship faced by many during the Great Depression. While not being able to end the Depression, the New Deal did preserve the people's confidence in America's institutions and government. Many of the relief measures of the New Deal were considered a success.

Answer 4

The major effect of the Great Depression and the New Deal on America was expanded government intervention into new areas of social and economic affairs and the creation of more social assistance agencies at the national level. The relationship between the national government and the people changed drastically. The government took on a greater role in the everyday social and economic lives of the people. The New Deal programs of FDR also created a liberal political alliance made up of labor unions, blacks and other ethnic and religious minorities, intellectuals, the poor, and some farmers. These groups became the backbone of the Democratic Party for decades following the Depression. As the federal government grew with new agencies and reform attempts, the cost of government increased. The growth of the government continued following the New Deal.
