H i s t o r y In other industries, such as agriculture, government involvement was more direct, by way of huge subsidies given to farmers; the same was the case in the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), a project that brought electric power to Appalachia. However, in its very ideological underpinnings, the First New Deal was a jumpstart for the investment sector of the economy, leaving out the common person – workers. Consequently, workers and the masses felt abandoned. It is not surprising that labour unrest and radicalism found breeding grounds in the suffering of the masses. Dr. Townsend in California advocated a stipend for the elderly; governor Huey Long of Louisiana called for 100% tax on capital gains and restriction of inheritance wealth; the two preempted the social security act and the wealth tax respectively. Father Coughlin turned to purely racist rhetoric in the process. It was the massive countrywide strikes that got Roosevelt’s attention. In response he came up with a Second New Deal. The problem in the Second New Deal was identified as under consumption. Taking after the British economist J.M. Keynes, the New Dealers adopted expansionary government spending (pump-priming). The target in the Second New Deal was the worker, the ordinary person, unlike in the First New Deal where industry was the focus. Roosevelt promised to deal with the private sector for the common man’s good. The National Recovery Labour Board (NLRB), also known as the Wagner Act gave the teeth to the NRA. Additional legislation was passed to support the Second New Deal, including the Companies Act to dilute the power of utility companies. The Public Works Administration (PWA) was expanded and strengthened in order to provide funding for numerous social projects at grass root level, including youth and liberal arts programs. The 2nd new deal enacted into law the Social Security Act and imposed wealth tax on the rich. Another difference between the two deals was that the Second New Deal limited/controlled production by means of environmental (soil) conservation, unlike direct output reduction in the first New Deal. The Second New Deal also benefited poor urban populations across the racial boundaries, as well as indigenous Americans, who had been left out almost as a race. Both deals also put in place infrastructure, from dams, airports, 6 1 W r i t i n g A c r o s s t h e C u r r i c u l u m
I n - c l a s s E s s a y roads, railroads to schools and playgrounds. However, neither deal promoted women’s rights, the rights and living standards of African and Mexican Americans in rural areas. Neither were the New Deals sustainable without external intervention. WWII ultimately recovered the economy. Neither one of the economic strategies (price increases nor consumer spending) could cure the complexities ailing the US economy at the time – at least neither policy proved sustainable by itself.
