Several New Deal measures including were declared unconstitutional by the supreme court. Roosevelt proposed designating up to six new supreme court justices. He wanted to relieve the over worked judges. Conservatives ended up protesting. Roosevelt designed this "court packing plan" to gain a majority if justices. Roosevelt's plan was defeated.

The Social Security act had a major impact on the legacy of the new deal. It helped people out with money who were disabled, and fatherless. Everybody was happy about this because it helped people out a lot. It also provided old age insurance. It guaranteed the elders a pension. Many people did not benefit from the social security act.


 * What opposition was there to Roosevelt's New Deal? What role did the Supreme Court play in balancing what America needed and what was Constitutionally allowed (see "Roosevelt and the New Deal" page 780)?
 * Re-read Legacy of the New Deal" pages 792-93. What perspectives are there on the effectiveness of the New Deal? How well did it work?

The process of putting my project together was frustrating at times, but at other times was pretty easy. iMovie was really frustrating me because I couldn't figure out how to add texts. Although I struggled a little bit, I finally got everything figured out. Overcoming my texts, I put the picture in pages and wrote on it. After I took a picture and re-added it.
