The benefits are unsustainable now, but at least they require someone to work.

Not really. Many receive benefits who don't work and never have worked.

Roosevelt's love of expansive regulation and new federal agencies disordered markets and created uncertainty that impaired investment and hiring. His policy of gold accumulation also contributed to the worldwide decline in gold-based monetary liquidity that made the Depression so wrenching.

Even the banking crisis in 1933 can be laid at Roosevelt's door in that he refused during the transition to approve having the Fed and US Treasury act as lender of last resort to the struggling banking system. Economists and bankers eventually prevailed on Roosevelt to adopt such a policy, which then spurred the beginning of recovery.
