Example Question #1 : Sequence In U.S. Economic History From 1899 To The Present
Which of the following did not get created during Franklin D. Roosevelt’s First Hundred Days as President?
Agricultural Adjustment Administration
Social Security Administration
Civilian Conservation Corps
Public Works Administration
These were all created during the First Hundred Days of Roosevelt's presidency.
Social Security Administration
The only one of these programs not created during Roosevelt’s early days in office was the Social Security Administration. Roosevelt was elected at the height of the Great Depression and preached a platform of relief, recovery, and then reform. The idea was that first the government had to provide for relief for the poor and starving masses, and then it needed to assist recovery by creating jobs and encouraging the economy. Reform would follow at a later date to ensure something like the Great Depression could not happen again.
