The New Deal was a series of domestic programs enacted in the United States between 1933 and 1938. They involved laws passed by Congress as well as presidential executive orders during the first term of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The programs were in response to the Great Depression, and focused on what historians call the "3 Rs": Relief, Recovery, and Reform. That is Relief for the unemployed and poor; Recovery of the economy to normal levels; and Reform of the financial system to prevent a repeat depression.

VII Conclusion
The great depression sucked entirely that is why it was great, and depressing. America was never the same after and probably never will be considering how today America is still struggling. I find the hobo stuff to be the best part with them having their own secret language and what not.
