3. What was the goal of the Second New Deal, and give two examples? The Roosevelt administration plan was to circulate money back into the economy and thought of ways to be able to do so. The second new deal approach was aimed at countering under consumption by getting cash into of ordinary people in order to help jump start the economy. In theory, massive consumer spending would generate economic growth and end the depression. Soon money starts to cycle and dollars start to circulate. As we know the first deal controlled production by limiting production and kept things stable. With the second deal people were not spending enough money so they came up with ways to help make improvements. One way that was put into effect was the Social Security Act. That act put money in the hands of the elderly to be able to spend once they are able to retire. Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act in 1935 which did help provide income for poor elderly persons. During these ruff times and being elderly was not easy. The Great Depression cause age discrimination within jobs and made it hard for the elderly to find jobs. The next thing to help the economy was the Wagner Act that came into effect in 1935. The Wagner Act was a guarantee right that workers were treated right and with respect. It made it possible for workers to have fair pay and have justified labor. The Wagner Act established the rights of employees to organize, join, or aid labor unions and to participate in collective bargaining through their representatives. The act also authorized unions to take intensive action for these purposes. This meant that workers could lawfully strike and take other peaceful action as a way of placing pressure on an employer. This was banned employers from engaging in unfair labor practices that interfere with the union rights of employees.
