FDR’s New Deal accomplished legislative relief, recovery, and reform. He was successful in reinstalling confidence in the banks, implementing minimum wage, regulating the market, creating jobs with the CCC, removing tariffs, refinancing mortgages, getting farms back on their feet with the AAA, and creating social security; All in 100 days.
No president had to face what FDR had to; he had no one to look up to. His attitude of trying everything made use of all parts of the country. If he focused on one part that he believed to have worked, it still wouldn’t have given the country such a boost it would have. The New Deal boosted the moral of the American people and made them believe that things would get better.
-Sorry if it’s not exactly 50, i edited out as much while still making it make some sense. =]

FDR was the scientist in the “laboratory” or New Deal and the legislation passed were the experiments. The people, guided by his voice, let the government intervene. They trusted the banks, worked for the CWA and PWA, got relief from FERA and prepared for the future with TVA and SSA.
I couldn’t get on the blog last night to post this because it said the website was uner maintenance…
Well, with only 50 words, I knew that I would need to find some way of being word-efficient so that I could get the main idea across. At the same time I wanted to be creative. So, rather than write one or two full-length sentences, I decided that an acrostic poem (THE FIRST ONE HUNDRED DAYS OF FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT) would allow me to be both efficient and creative. I realize that this is not what anyone had in mind, but it works for me. It’s also going to take up lots of space. While being somewhat strange, I think my ideas are communicated well in it. So, my 50 words start here:

FDR was elected president when the country was in need for dire changes. He changed much of the way that the government works by creating Social Security, regulate working hours and the minimum wage and opening the TVA to battle unemployment in the country, he did all this in 100 days.
the people of the depression era had no one else to look to except for FDR. his policies and legislative action are all anyone had to hope for. by installing the programs he did, FDR sparked what wold be a new modern age of government intervention into the daily lives of many people. as the article says, “the first 100 days were an accident”. but what about the next 100 years? the new deal was established to fix an economic problem. do we want to have the same policies used to fix today’s crisis? or should we eliminate things like social security which still exists?
FDR had no specific plan coming into office but he knew the depression must end. With that idea and his personality, he made an effort to relieve the people, reform the economy, and recover vitality- in both short-term and long term. Results were mixed. The important thing is- he acted.
FDR and his brain trusts tried whatever they could to make programs to help the people. People were comfortable with FDR doing this because of his fire-side chats. Some programs helped, some failed, and some help temporary. His programs were aimed to relief, recovery and reform the poor people throughout America.
During the 1930′s, the New Deal brought about vast reform. It created economic (NRA), environmental(CCC,TVA), and social (SS) reforms. Through these reforms, America was able to create jobs and make an attempt to avoid future depressions. Although some of these reforms would cause problems later in the future.
With the american public on his side, FDR embarked on a journey that changed America. His quickly constructed relief, recovery and reform plan, the New Deal, provided hope for the nation. Farms were saved, banks reopened, and jobs were created thanks to programs like the Agricultural Adjustment Administaration, Emergency Banking Act and Civilian Conservation Corps.
FDR was aware of the problems both he and the US were faced with. He had no particular policy in mind to follow. He just tried different things-some worked, some didn’t. He regained the people’s trust as he found both an immediate fix and ways prevent a repeat situation.
The New Deal was an unplanned success in a time of failure. Despite FDR’s failure to create a federal blueprint & concoct a concrete industrial recovery program, the stock market & banks were regulated, national relief was set up, jobs were created, mortgages were refinanced, and bank deposits were guaranteed.
The New Deal FDR invented was a “half-way revolution” for the United States that established volunteer agencies to help deal with the economy and unemployment of the age, and addressed labor issues with AAA, TVA and Wagner Act, but some of his programs, like NRA, were more hurtful than helpful.
The New Deal was an unplanned mash of ideas that tried to relieve, recover, and reform various problems in banking, farming, housing market, and road systems. It was accomplished in that it brought confidence in banks, crop production control, refinance relief to struggling home owners, and, eventually, an interstate program.
Although not pulling America out of a recession, the New Deal did bring hope to Americans. It supplied jobs that not only paid but also helped the community. Unemployment, pension and social security were also introduced to help those who were unable to work. It help people be comfortable investing in banks.
The New Deal by FDR was a ray of light in a dark sky. Within only one-hundred days, this New Deal created government agencies that relieved people of their economic stresses, helped businesses and farms recover from the shock of the Depression, and reformed the sources of the problem.
FDR’s luck New Deal helped the farmers make money and the people afford their houses. It helped Unions and the strikers band together to fight for their rights. It called teachers and students paying the teachers and helping the future workers through school. And FDR connected the naton with roads
The New Deal was a now and later plan. It solved the issue of getting money back in banks; protecting it with FDIC, got millions working with relief organizations,and helped to stop the farming crisis using the AAA. Social Security and labor rights continue to impact us today.His tactic? Relief,Recovery,and Reform
The New Deal programs were more of an antiseptic, rather than a cure for the Great Depression. Although it was very successful in improving the lives and living conditions of the people that were hardest hit by the terrible economy, it did not bring the country out of the depression.
The first hundred days of FDR’s administration produced a large variety of programs and administrations that were designed to help the poor and create more jobs. While some ended in failure, like the NRA, many new jobs were created for the public, farmers were able to be more successful, and labor organizations were able to legally form and strike against business (through the Wagner Act).
It’s a little over the word count, but I think it’s acceptable.
FDR’s New Deal programs were the result of lucky improvisation. However, he was willing to experiment with programs to find things that worked. With the inspiration of congress and his Brain Trust, FDR poured out numerous programs. He saw failure, in the NRA, and success with public works projects.
The New Deal didn’t accomplish too much in the long term but it temporarily and speedily provided releif to many people in need of it. It gave jobs and money back to the people. FDR may have not saved the country, but he certainly aided the “economic learning” of the country.
It seems that FDR should have had some sort of an idea of what he was going to do before getting into office, knowing that he would beat Hoover. Even so, because of the nation’s desperation and willingness to try anything, FDR’s method of try-anything was met with open arms. What it accomplished was a new sense of faith in the government, even if these programs didnt always work.
The onehundred days was an agressive way to help end the depression. New organizations were established to relive farmers, laborors, and the every day person. Some of these organizations didnt help the problem at all they just contributed to the problem. Several New deal administrations are still in act to day such as the socail security act and the FDIC. Although the New Deal and the Hundred days helped it was the war the ended the depression
FDR’s first 100 days in office was a series of trial and error to revive the nations economy. Goals associated with these days include relief, reform, and recovery. FDR’s new deal programs helped to supply jobs and welfare, as well as provide micro-economic intervention. FDR appealed directly to the people.
The New Deal created the AAA, NRA, PWA, FERA and TVA within the first 100 days. FDR had no specific plans for the New Deal, but provided jobs, allowed expansion of homeownership and improved the infrastructure of the US. The recovery and reforms of the New Deal provided the US with strength to reverse the economic problems and be victorious in WWII.
FDR’s comprehensive New Deal programs facilitated a revolutionary change in the role that the federal government had with U.S. citizens. Therefore, the New Deal’s impact on history lies in the plan’s fundamental alteration of the function of the federal government; from distanced and uninvolved to a responsive, active and highly accountable government, commited to addressing the needs of its constituents. Although the various “alphabet soup” agencies of the New Deal were significant in remedying the affliction that was the Great Depression, the New Deal accomplished much more, by boldly liberalizing the U.S. government while gaining the support to bolster its new form.
The New Deal, most of all, lifted the spirits of the American citizens, and this is why FDR was so well liked by the people. His three R’s, relief, recovery, and reform, and the programs that he created, all helped the United States to get out of the Great Depression.
In 100 days FDR tried the impossible. He brought hope, social change, new programs, and a job increase, with the help of the senate and big business. His “accident” had brought relief, recovery, and reform, which is what the people needed in the dark times no one had ever faced.
FDR’s New Deal was made to try and reverse the problems of the great depression. His three R’s: Relief, Recovery and Reform were the main goals of the actions taken by Roosevelt. (32) His reassurance in the banks, application of minimum wage and creation of social security made it a success.

FDR’s New Deal program was successful when it came to short term relief. Yes, it provided millions of jobs, but the true savior from the depression was WWII. Different results resulted from different Acts; the NRA was declared unconstitutional, but the SSA and the focal points of that act are still functioning today.
President FDR accomplished something that no other president had before-he talked directly to the people. Because most of his programs were guess it check thats what made it a beauty. The New Deal helped out individual groups of people, the elderly, the poor farmers. It accomplished new radical ideas of relief,reconstruction in which the ideas were from the people, advisors such as the Brain Trust.
The first 100 days of FDR’s presidency were very hectic and challenged congress. He forced Ideas about recovery, relief and reform in order to help the poor citizens of the US as well as the failing economy. This New Deal made it easier for the country to get back on its feet.
The success of the New Deal was based more on chance than on planning and organization. Roosevelt formed many temporary wartime establishments during WWI. These programs became models for more permanent, essential ones. Within the first 100 days of office, FDR passed sixteen major proposals to help reform the country.
The New Deal was created to help to help the nation, new programs were created for farming, industrial recovery, public works, national relief and many more; the government also experimented with currency and a budget, and even though some failures occurred, reforms produced social cohesion and faith in the government.
The New Deal was a successful “gamble” for the United States put into motion by FDR. These programs targeted relief, recovery, and reform. It served as motivation for the great depression and the future. The New Deal regulated the banks (people trusted them again), and established the TVA. only 50=(
The New Deal’s main goals were to aid the unemployed, reform businesses and banks, and to recover the economy after the Great Depression began in 1929. During the first 100 days of the New Deal peoples confidence in banks grew, economic development amd imprortance of school increased and the entire infrastructure of the US was rebuilt. All in all, pretty successful.
FDR’s New Deal consisted of a series of short-term relief programs to help the nation recover from the depression, and prevent another through reformation. It provided economic planning and stimulus programs to aid the vast number of unemployed and established public works administrations which provided many citizens with jobs.
The accidental first 100 days of FDR’s presidency shaped the New Deal. Roosevelt had few plans prior to his inauguration, and mainly took advice from cabinet members and unofficial “Brain Trust”. New Deal relief, recovery, and reforms restored faith in the government and economy, which would last until the 1960s.
In just 100 days, FDR accomplished something that most people never could: he forever changed history. The New Deal instated policies and legislation that ultimately saved America. The New Deal regulated the economy by creating jobs and removing tariffs, with sympathy towards both big businesses and farmers. FDR worked for everyone. —Ashlie Busone. (Please note that the number 100 is not a word.)
Although some economic historians blame the New Deal for prolonging the Depression, others believed FDR secured the failing economy with the creation of several new laws and agencies. The efficiency of these governmental programs (welfare and job opportunities) created lasting effects on the government that a select few are still being implemented today.
An accidental turn of events that formed many improvised legislation’s that were designed to give the county’s economy and people relief, provide recovery and generate reform. FDR communicated his message through fireside chats to address the citizens. His idea was to help the present situation and prevent another like it.
The First 100 Days was a time of economic experimentation with unprecedented programs. FDR was able to create huge government programs due to his wide popularity and the dire circumstances. Most of the programs were quick fixes. They created jobs + fixed infrastructure. They needed tweaking to be long term.
The 32nd president, Franklin D. Roosevelt, was pressured into creating a New Deal type legistation, or series of legislations, because of the countries econimic condition. Although big business individuals were not happy about it, government intervention was necessary to kick start the economy, and create a safty net to prevent future crises.
