Franklin D. Roosevelt vs. Barack Obama
Franklin D. Roosevelt vs. Barack Obama The economy of the 1930s was a devastating financial built in bed that the American public ordain neer forget. However, this doesnt mean that biography will cease to repeat itself. The political policies of Franklin Delano Roosevelt ar a lot declare for the relief of our countrys depression and some of which are quiet down in effect today. To avoid our received recession, will Barack Obama choose to radical his policies off of FDRs in hopes that the same plan will take on twice?There are some similarities and differences between the political action at law today and the action during the Great Depression. Within just the first 99 days of his election as President, Roosevelts New Deal was send into action with the support of Congress. The New Deal was proposed to assistant relieve those who were trifling or in danger of losing their homes and recover agriculture and business. Programs such as the Tennessee Valley Authority, Social Security, and Medicare were created because of Roosevelts action in the Great Depression.Herbert Hoover, the preliminary president, did not feel that government spending should be given flat to citizens. He believed that seconding the American people in this way would in reality hurt their morale and cause them to become more like a complaisantist nation. Certain ideas such as enforcing fixed pricing, controlling businesses, and humankindipulating the honour of currency were suggested and quickly declined by Hoover who believed all were Socialist ideas. though many people saw Hoover as an evil man that refused to give away supplyeral money, he was actually quite unblemished with his predictions.For example, Welfare, which is a program used today that was created in the New Deal, is often misused today by people who are capable of working, plainly are too lazy to actually make their own income source. I believe that a lot of Americans today are spoon fed because of the gove rnment help that they receive. Though Roosevelt did help in the Great Depression, his flitting ideas were turned into permanent solutions that have caused new damages today. Now our current President is forced with the decision to either help the public with evanescent ideas like Roosevelts or look out for what is dress hat for our futurity like Hoover.Its not an easy decision. Barack Obama has made an impact in our economy in areas similar to Franklin Roosevelt. He has created jobs and packages, like Obamacare, that he believes will help American citizens. Obama helped security out the auto industries similar to how Roosevelt helped bail out the banks during the depression. However, Barack passed the Wall Street Reform (which helped the American financial administration be less confusing and more apparent) to make sure that we would never have to bail out the banks again.Barack has also eliminated tax breaks for companies who ship foreign to try and promote American companie s to create more jobs for the citizens who are here. In his term, Obama has added over 479,000 jobs which is the most growth weve had in a decade. He has verbalize many times on how he plans to build from the middle secern out rather than from the top down. Our middle class is of high impressiveness to Barack and because of this, he has gained a tremendous support from the public.It seems that our current president has taken a few ideas from Roosevelt with the added caution of the foreseeable future. Our country looks like its headed in the right direction, but we may never know whether the help provided will be temporary until we live through it. As citizens, it would be the best for us to learn how to live on our own without the help of our government. If we were to become too dependent on our welfare checks or social security, then we could end up being controlled instead of governing ourselves.The best solution would to be to save our money and work hard at what we do. Thoug h it may seem that there are no jobs getable to us at the moment, we do have to trust that the companies around us will see it better to provide domestic jobs rather than displace them overseas. Though I dont entirely agree with how Franklin D. Roosevelt tried and true to solve the Great Depression, I have to admit that what he did he thought he was doing for the best. Great presidents like Obama, Roosevelt, and even Hoover are great because they think of us and not themselves.
