Herbert Hoover at the Helm Thinking Skill: Explicitly assess information and draw conclusions

We'd Like To Thank You Martin Charnin Today we're living in a shanty Today we're scrounging for a meal Today I'm stealing coal for fires Who knew I could steal? I used to winter in the tropics I spent my summers at the shore I used to throw away the paper-- We don’t anymore… We'd like to thank you: Herbert Hoover For really showing us the way We'd like to thank you: Herbert Hoover You made us what we are today

Prosperity was 'round the corner The cozy cottage built for two In this blue heaven That you gave us Yes! We're turning blue! They offered us AL Smith and Hoover We paid attention and we chose Not only did we pay attention We paid through the nose.

In ev'ry pot he said "a chicken" But Herbert Hoover he forgot Not only don't we have the chicken We ain't got the pot! Hey Herbie You left behind a grateful nation So, Herb, our hats are off to you We're up to here with admiration Come down and have a little stew Come down and share some Christmas dinner Be sure to bring the missus too We got no turkey for our stuffing Why don’t we stuff you?!

We'd like to thank you, Herbert Hoover For really showing us the way You dirty rat, you Bureaucrat, you Made us what we are today Come and get it, Herb!

Hoover and the Great Depression Believed in Laissez Faire Capitalism; pro-business Saw Depression as part of economic cycle; anticipated a rebound Relied on Localism, Cooperation, and Private Charity Relief should only come from states and localities Voluntary goals for business and labor Volunteerism failed because most acted in own interest Refused to use federal money for relief bills, but favored using federal money to help business. “Trickle-Down Economics”

Hoover Dam 1931 Electricity, Irrigation, Public Works Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC) 1932 $1 billion in loans to help insurance companies, banks, agricultural co’s, railroads, and local governments. Hoover vetoed relief bills, waiting for corporate program to work Hoover’s Response

20,000 WWI veterans & family set up camp in DC to demand early payment of WWI bonuses Hoover threatens to veto bonus bill; Bill fails in Senate (textbook error here) Hoover offers return fare $ and 6,000 go home Hoover orders General MacArthur to clear the camp MacArthur is convinced of communist conspiracy MacArthur uses cavalry, tanks, bayonets, tear gas; Tent camp is burned down MacArthur ignores orders and forcibly drives them across the Potomac Bonus Army (Summer 1932)
