Ok. Here’s a brief description of the presidents from the beginning of the depression until the beginning of World War two.
So, at the beginning of the depression in October of 1929, you got Hoover in office. At first, everyone thinks its just another depression, that happen every so often. At that point, no one had any idea how bad it would be. Hoover believed in the concept of “rugged individualism” where basically, he disagreed with socialism/communism (more basically, he was conservative). So he started out with no special programs, as any president would have done (including FDR) in his position. He started out with encouragement towards business management, then when everyone started to realize it was bad, he started to move towards more drastic measures, such as his lowering of mortgage rates and the government buying crops from farmers. The only time that people realized the actual issue the nation was facing was at the end of his presidency, which is when he came up with his plan that he would have used had he been reelected. Well, he wasn’t. So, after FDR took office, he went to him and showed him his plan. FDR went and used it as if it were his own idea. His “New Deal” was an edited (edited for the worse, more towards socialism) version of the plan that Hoover had shown him. The thing is, the New Deal didn’t do much. It was somewhat successful in helping the economy, but not all that much more than that of what Hoover had done (that is if you consider that FDR could have done a lot more in office because he had been in during the depression for much longer, so you have to look at how much they did proportional to how long they were in). His New Deal was all good and fine, but if you look at the charts (trust me, I have), you see that World War Two was the major contributor to the economic recovery. You see that starting in 1942, there was a dramatic increase in GDP (Gross Domestic Product). This was completely a result of America’s well known success at times of war. The American economy always performs better and more efficiently during times of war, as it did in WWII and took us out of The Great Depression.
Ok, so this is basically FDR's contribution: He didn’t do all that much, WWII did all everyone though that he did. All the good he did do, was because Hoover told him what to do.
Thank you for taking the time to read what took me a somewhat considerable amount of time, long enough for me to do it in Word so I wouldn’t lose it by accident if some stupid shit happened.

depression
Well that took a long time to write, a longer amount of time than how long FDR had to think about whether or not he should take Hoover's idea.
Take a look at some of my other definitions biatch.

Get the Depression mug.Get the depression mug.Depression is when you feel so emotionally terrible and ill that sometimes you feel like you don’t want to exist or just wanna fucking die every single day as you are falling into a never ending pit of sadness and melancholy. Sometimes you feel like it’s gonna be okay but then you feel it hit you and your face is drenched in tears. People throw this word around too much like “oh I’m so depressed” because you just wanna hide your hurting, especially when they post it online.
So people who haven’t felt depression before listen: if your family member, friend or just someone you know looks like they have depression.. talk to them. I would’ve killed myself if it hadn’t been for my mother asking me if I had depression.

Get the Depression mug.It feels like no one understands you..you feel like your not happy with yourself & others. You try to make other people happy b it sometimes it doesn’t work. On the outside you seem really happy, but on the i aside it’s a whole different story. People think they care but they don’t. You try not going anywhere or don’t try anything anymore. You also do t ever want to wake up. You always put yourself down & try to hurt yourself.
