There’s been much discussion lately about “economic stimulus,” and “putting America back to work,” according to a media release. When President Franklin D. Roosevelt unveiled his “new deal” back in 1935, the country was in economic turmoil. Unemployment was at record levels, but Americans didn’t necessarily want a handout, or a dole. They wanted to work. The Works Progress Administration fulfilled that need. It provided Americans a means to work and feed their families, Barton said. The Oklahoma WPA built roads, bridges, libraries, schools, and many other structures that still stand today.
