Question

During his 1932 presidential re-election campaign, Republican President Herbert Hoover spoke out loudly against the New Deal programs proposed by his opponent, Democratic candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt. He claimed that Roosevelt's attempts to help people through times of poverty and hardship would create an unhealthy dependency on the government.
