The New Deal: Crash Course US History #34

[@katepowell3598]

My great great grandfather is Henry Steagall. He's the one that actually wrote out the Glass-Steagall Act. My family still owns the pens that it was signed with. I just thought it was cool. Have a great day!

[@philippe.hansen-estruch4748]

We need those pens more than ever

[@thomas316]

It is, the Glass-Steagall act is still regularly discussed in the context of banking legislation and business if you listen to Bloomberg etc.

[@moreheavy1758]

Your grandfathers name rolls off my lips at least 2 times a week. Thank you Henry Steagall for 70 years of stability! I apologize for the ignorance of my generation.

[@pollux3742]

If your teacher wanted you to write 10 facts like mine does, here you go. 1. Roosevelt suggested it was the government's responsibility to guarantee every man a right to make a comfortable living. 2. FDR called for an end to prohibition. 3. FDR didn't create the new deal or put it into effect. It was passed by Congress. 4. The new deal was a set of government programs intended to fix the depression and prevent future depressions. 5. Relief programs gave help and money to people in need. 6. Recovery programs gave people jobs 7. Reform programs were designed to regulate the economy in the future to prevent more depressions. 8. The NRA was designed to be government planners and business leaders working together to coordinate industry standards for production, prices, and working conditions. 9. The Wagner act guaranteed workers the right to unionize and it created a national labor relations board to hear disputes over unfair labor practices. 10. The social security act of 1935 included unemployment insurance, aid to the disabled, aid to poor families with children, and retirement benefits. Its funded by payroll taxes instead of general tax revenue.

[@monicaseitz2282]

It was interesting how FDR's New Deal didn't end up ending the Depression on its own. By 1940 over 15% of the work force remained unemployed, he did decrease the unemployment rate by 10%, but when FDR reduced government spending to farms, unemployment jumped back up to 20%. In the end, the New Deal did play a huge factor in helping end the Great Depression, but not as much as we thought it would..

I thought this video did a great job explaining things in a simplistic and up to date way.

What FDR understood and his new deal addressed is that capitalism eventually eats it's self and you need a bit of social programs and socialism from keeping it from cannibalizing itself. America of or centuries had a balance of socialism to keep its enterprise from wreaking havoc on what the Bible would say, the least among us, but we are quickly becoming a hundred percent capitalism, which for the one percent might be a boom but for the rest of us will be noting but a bust.

[@plankalkulcompiler9468]

Yes and that was actually what Joseph Stalin did at USSR during his five year plans. Stalin adopted socialist emulation to emulate free market competition while FDR adopted socialism to give social benefit to people. FDR and Stalin are very similar at their policies and the both are successful.

Any socialist leaning person would. The problem is in actually deciding if this is the right solution. There are always enormous numbers of factors in any economic event.
