The Second New Deal wasn't as successful, though it provided jobs to the unemployed and allowed workers to be treated fairly, the Great Depression still dragged on.
My Understanding.
It helps me understand The Great Depression better, by allow me to now that the necessity of jobs back then was big. The stock market crashed along with people, and jobs, and money.
