His policy of inaction worsened the effects of the Great Depression on the population.

Hoover favored limited federal intervention, relied on voluntarism and local relief, and resisted direct aid to individuals; his measures were widely seen as insufficient and helped deepen public suffering (though he later created programs like the RFC, they came too late and were limited).
