The Works Progress Administration (WPA) did create some jobs during the depression. The WPA along with others such as the CCC, TVA, etc did create some jobs. However, due to the burden of these programs and the other federal programs instituted by FDR, the number of jobs in the private sector decreased, which ultimately hurt the economy more. These conservation type programs would have been far more productive, efficient, and helpful to the economy if the government had privatized them.
