Townsend- Francis Townsend was a doctor from California. He gained attention because of his idea about a monthly pension. Most people agreed with it because it helped both the old and the young out. The old would get money without working and the young would get money for working and will have many jobs available. However, it didn't get much support from Congress. Due to Townsend's idea, many people went against FDR and didn't like his ideas.
Long- Huey Long was a Senator from Louisiana. He used to be the governor of Louisiana and because of his power, his ideas were widely heard. He was against big business as well. He also supported FDR just like Coughlin. His biggest complaint was that FDR ideas weren't helping the wealth of the people in the United States at the time. Long then made the "Share Our Wealth Plan." This planned taxed the wealthy a lot. Then with that money it would help out all Americans. He was soon a problem for FDR. He claimed many votes; however, he was soon assassinated in 1935.
