The WPA and the CC did nothing to generate wealth or create new jobs. They might as well handed out money for doing nothing as to have made those make work projects. The real solution is to cut taxes, eliminate corporate income taxes and capital gain taxes, abolish the EPA and keep just a few common sense enviro laws. Spending more money is what kept the depression going until WWII started and after. Real recovery didn’t start until 1946. FDR was after the same thing Bozo is after now, collapsing the economy and shifting it to government control, fortunately for the US, WWII came along and then the communist SOB died.
And all I’ll say is you are far more favorable towards Roosevelt than I am.
