Who were the demagogues of the 1930s? What were some new deal measures resulting from the demogogues?
Q. In my history class we discussed essays which rely on knowledge of multiple events or things... my teacher gave us an essay topic to write about which relies on knowledge of various things... "How did the 'demagogues' of the 1930s cause FDR to initiate further New Deal measures?" I know of a couple demagogues but i don't know how they caused new deal measures to be initiated... what are new deal measures? how did the acts of the demagogues cause FDR to make those decisions?

A. Sen. Huey Long of Louisiana was one. He was a "populist", basing his power on servicing the people of Louisiana during the depression. He was a great speechmaker, and used his powers to enforce demands for more and more aid. As Governor (1928-32) he put a special tax on oil to fund his social programs, which made Business think of him as a Revolutionary. Best remembered for his Share Our Wealth platform, which swept the nation during the Great Depression, Huey Long was demonized by the powerful as a dangerous revolutionary, yet revered by the masses as a champion of the common man. In a land of plenty, Huey Long believed that no American should be without an education, a home, an automobile, and a job that paid a decent living wage. [cont.]

A. Both. In terms of actual economic benefit, the New Deal did little to get industry and business revitalized. The real recovery happened on its own over the better part of ten years, reaching its zenith just as WWII broke out. When the demand for war materials skyrocketed in 1940 - 41 American industry was generally ready. The New Deal may have even hindered recovery in some markets by creating a labor shortage.

A. the New Deal was an abysmal failure. almost all of today's economists agree that Franklin Roosevelt extended the Great Depression at least 7 years longer than it needed to last. the New Deal failed because it interfered with natural market forces that would've corrected themselves sooner than later. for example, for every government job that was created, more jobs were lost in the private sector, which were the only jobs that could've helped revive the economy. today, Obama is taking us down the same path that Roosevelt took in 1933. also, for the record, FDR was not a good president. he was an aspiring dictator who ruled for longer than what was gentlemanly (4 terms) and tried to circumvent the Constitution by packing the Supreme Court… [cont.]

A. The New Deal helped alleviate the Depression, but most historians agree that it did not end until and because of World War II. Politically, the U.S. developed the idea that the government had an obligation to guarantee the social welfare of its people, an idea which went unchallenged until 2001. It also brought about a change in allegiance of political parties, with Afro-Americans voting for Democrats for the first time (although many of them went with Ike in 1952). Economically the New Deal strengthened labor unions. It also gave great weight to Eduard Keynes's economic theories.

Cons were that it gave too much power to the government. They were in charge of the economy and large industrial companies. This in turn could lead to a dictatorship among the government and the liberties of individuals would be taken away. Programs favored whites over the African Americans.
