1 Exemplar Lesson 01: The Telltale Signs of the Great Depression Exemplar Lesson 02: My Brother s Keeper? Surviving the Great Depression Exemplar Lesson 03: Deal or no Deal? Roosevelt s Response to the Great Depression Exemplar Lesson 04: Executive Power: How Much is too Much State Resources: None Identified RATIONALE: The Great Depression severely tested America s willpower to maintain democracy or succumb to the powerful social and economic forces that were pulling it apart. Americans demanded modifications in the function of their government to ensure survival. The Roosevelt Presidency, unlike their predecessors, saw the dangers of continuing laissez-faire government but also saw the dangers of people becoming too dependent on the government. But drastic times called for drastic measures. Government solutions and services are what the people demanded and what the institution delivered. Survival may have called for the expansion of the government s power, which pushed all legal limits, but in the process these short term solutions became permanent expectations in later generations. America changed from rugged individualism to democratic socialism. Now, government is the first, and not the last resort, in solving political, social and economic problems. Government intrusion, wanted or not wanted, is here to stay and is one of the enduring legacies left from The Great Depression.
