The thing is, while they might not have been perfect solutions, they were good enough to prevent what could have been far worse (see the examples of Russia and Germany). As a result, FDR did as well as one could have done in those circumstances.

That is a small step to the left as opposed to one giant leap?

You are right. During the 30's radical elements in many countries took power and we were able to avoid people like Huey Newton.

Pardon me, Huey Long. Huey Newton was the Black Panther, which is even worse.
