New Deal Then and Now

The New Deal is a revolutionary economic recovery plan made by Franklin D. Roosevelt. One of the products of the New Deal is the National Recovery Agency a.k.a. N.R.A. They set wages, set work hours, and set prices for certain items. Now it would not take that much knowledge to realize that they still work today, but as they have developed they have become more more modern and efficient. Our wages, depending on what your opinion is, are more fair, and our work hours better. Thanks to the N.R.A. our workers are happy and our economy booming.

The T.V.A. a.k.a. the Tennessee Valley Authority are in charge of several things. It was originally created to supply electricity at affordable prices so that even those in the depression had access to it. They also prevented dangerous floods and harnessed water for the electricity they were meant to provide. Today, unlike other government programs, it is funded purely on the sales of its own product, it also provides for 9 million people. It's a good thing we have the T.V.A. or else we wouldn't have electricity all across America.

The Dust Bowl was a disastrous event that caused the deaths of several people and the loss of thousands, even millions of crops. The Soil Conservation Service was created so that this natural disaster never happens again. They taught farmers the proper ways to maintain and preserve their soil. They now have their own website that promotes all times of sustainable living i.e. food safety, better cotton initiative, and even sustainable palm oil. Without the SCS we would all be covered in dust.

The FDIC is responsible for was creating to make sure people trusted and used banks again. During the Great Depression people would hold onto their money because it wasn't worth it to invest in a bank. Roosevelt created the FDIC so that wouldn't happen and now banks are one of the most successful businesses in America. Without the FDIC we would not have enough money to even run this website!
