FDR and his advisers believed that overproduction had caused gluts in the farm market, dropping prices, and, in turn, sending farmers' incomes plummeting. More than three million farmers joined the AAA program in its first year, and farm income did increase by more than fifty percent between 1932 and 1935. ]]> 2021-02-23 19:10:02 UTC https://padlet.com/bradleyfmccormick/oxw19f28y9w0r4z7/wish/1233248368 Resuscitating American Industry https://padlet.com/bradleyfmccormick/oxw19f28y9w0r4z7/wish/1233256253 The centerpiece of his industrial recovery program was the National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA) that Congress passed in June 1933. Drawing its inspiration from the federal government's efforts at economic planning during World War I and the voluntary trade associations of the 1920s, the NIRA provided for national economic planning as opposed to individualistic and competitive, laissez-faire capitalism. Businesses heeded the codes when they saw fit, and ignored them when it served their purposes. Small business owners complained, with good reason, that big businesses dominated the code-drafting process and looked to drive their smaller competitors out of the market. Labor unions enjoyed a new-found legitimacy—symbolized by the millions of workers who joined—but found that businesses ignored provisions that guaranteed worker's wages and hours. By the end of 1933, it was clear that the NRA was anything but a success.  ]]> 2021-02-23 19:11:31 UTC https://padlet.com/bradleyfmccormick/oxw19f28y9w0r4z7/wish/1233256253 They were many positive impacts that roosevelt made to the country and people. https://padlet.com/bradleyfmccormick/oxw19f28y9w0r4z7/wish/1233268358 2021-02-23 19:13:44 UTC https://padlet.com/bradleyfmccormick/oxw19f28y9w0r4z7/wish/1233268358 The combat for The Great Depression https://padlet.com/bradleyfmccormick/oxw19f28y9w0r4z7/wish/1233275889   FDR was able to combat the great depression by implementing a variety of innovative policies.

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) put 300,000 young men to work in 1,200 camps planting trees, building bridges, and cleaning beaches. Finally, the Civil Works Administration (CWA) spent almost $1 billion on public works projects, including airports and roads. Roosevelt shut the CWA after only four months, however, because it was so costly.
The benefits of these three programs were obvious: they provided relief for millions of Americans on the verge of outright starvation and gave unemployed Americans jobs.
