Best Answer

Roosevelt thought that the government should manage the environment and regulate food and drug industries. His idea of fair government did not mean that everyone would get rich or that the government should take care of the lazy.

He also came up with the square deal program, which was a plan to keep the more wealthy and powerful people from taking advantage of small business owners and the poor.

How did Roosevelt's policies affect the government?

Roosevelt's policies affected the government by this: everybody felt that Roosevelt was not helping all of the young kids in Hungary who were left alone with their parents. Soon, everyone from the MUA (military underground association) felt as though Roosevelt was not helping them keep all of the bugs, animals, and mud from getting into their homes. This surprised many people, as they did not think Roosevelt would do this. They soon rose up and started a rebellion, which soon led to WWII. Therefor, Roosevelt's policies did not help the government in any way.
