In this essay my task is to explain my opinion whether the New Deal was a good deal or not. I am also going to defend my point of view by stating evidence by the documents we’ve gone over during class. Also stating mental knowledge to support my claim of my opinion on the new deal. In my opinion I would say that the New Deal was a good deal because it has made unemployment rates go down and it has not gone up ever since. If one idea didn’t work they would go try a new one. Others thought F.D.R has way too much power and was still asking for more power. Also he had an idea to help senior citizens, kids, and those who have disabilities. When they would help children they would be helped until the age of 18. To prove my point there is a document with a chart of unemployment rates before the new deal, bank failure rates, and the average income and spending rates in 3 different charts. That was in document 1 alone. But in document 5 it shows how unemployment rates have gone up or down from the years 1910-1960. In the years where the New Deal took place the unemployment rate has gone down drastically. Some say that you shouldn’t blame F.D.R for the depression because president hoover had left office during mid depression. This had meant that Franklin Roosevelt had went to office in a hard state where the depression was already into a deep state. In document 7a there is a cartoon named “Oliver Twist”. In thus cartoon it shows F.D.R asking for more of a certain program but the chef thinks it’s true and gives him but doesn’t know he is providing power. During the depression was one of the hardest times of the United States. It was a hard time because the unemployment rate was practically going downhill and was going to be hard to get through. After the New Deal programs worked and even the Social Security work is still here
