Public Works Projects

Public works projects were programs that FDR created during his time in office. They were to help create jobs and help the American people in the Great Depression.
Some public works projects included:

-NLRB (National Labor Relations Board)

-TVA (Tennesse Valley Authority)

-Social Security

-Federal money was put into the arts to pay artists and expose the people to music and art.

For our society today, I would recommend social security, even though we already have it, it needs some kind of reform because all of the money is being drained out of it.

I also think that we need more money put into the arts and it would have a positive impact on the country.

We also need more programs like the TVA. Even though we have programs like it going on right now, I think we could use the money to work more on fixing pot holes, and research in medicine and on renewable energy. The programs we need to have should create jobs but also move our country forward.

Another place that needs money in our society is in our education system. Teachers that our educating the next generation shouldnt be laid off or get wage cuts. Our country isnt leading in education anymore, we are actually 16th in the world and that needs to change if we want our society to move forward.
