You are correct; the most significant difference between the plans of Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt for dealing with the Great Depression was option 3:
3. Roosevelt proposed that the federal government provide direct employment to the needy, while Hoover relied more on local government and private charities.
Roosevelt's approach led to the development of the New Deal, which greatly expanded the role of the federal government in providing relief, recovery, and reform directly to citizens through various agencies and programs.
how did the plans of presidents hoover & Roosevelt compare for dealing with the great depression?
1. hoover increased federal spending on public works / Roosevelt opposed such projects
2. hoover gave emergency loans to banks + businesses / Roosevelt opposed such programs
3. roosevelt proposed that the federal government provide direct employment to the needy / hoover relied more on local govt + private charities
4. both believed in not providing direct payments to the unemployed
i put 3 because of roosevelt's policies but I'm not 100% sure that I'm right, please help?
