What changes came with the New Deal in the 1900s?

Answer 1

Many businessmen and financiers did not support the economic measures of the New Deal. With the recession of 1937, many business leaders and politicians claimed that FDR’s policies were a failure and the attempt to maintain prosperity during peacetime was not successful at all. Many felt that the Depression was just part of the free enterprise (capitalistic) system correcting itself and the laws, such as supply and demand, of the free enterprise system would eventually heal the economy. While there were some radical movements during the Great Depression, the faith Americans had in their system of government did not falter. Many, however, were opposed to the growth of the federal government and the corresponding cost to maintain those new governmental agencies. From FDR’s New Deal to the present, the federal government has continued to grow, assume an active role in the daily lives of citizens, and to cost more in the form of taxes, and to spend more on domestic and foreign affairs. Many politicians, economists, and students of government did not favor such increases.
