This program was one of the most successful made by The New Deal because it left our nation with more bridges, roads, and other things that were needed.

Was federal funding a smart move?

Yes it was a smart move. It not only provided countless jobs during the depression, but it also left our country better off due to all of the projects that were completed.

Criticism

Many were critical because of logistics. Most of the work projects were located in the east but the bulk of the unemployed laborers were in the west.
