Did Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal weaken or save capitalism?
Give three reasons

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the answer could have some in-betweens arguments, I think the New Deal weakened the strict concept of Capitalism.

1.- New Deal original conception was to help the poor American people. This is not a goal of Capitalism.

2.- New Deal tried to create legislation and economic programs to give temporary jobs to citizens that lost their jobs due to the Great Depression.

3.- Democrats' ideas to invest money in social programs for the benefit of the common citizen, is not a characteristic of Capitalism or the Republican platform.

However, I believe the New Deal was good for America during the Great Depression. Although controversial for some, the New Deal had a positive impact on America because the economic situation was the worst in the history of the United States.  

The New Deal was the series of economic programs and legislation created by President Franklin D. Roosevelt as a result of the Great Depression that started on October 29, 1929, after the US stock market crashed.

The federal government created the Social Security Administration, the Tennessee Valley Authority Act, the Work Progress Administration, the Social Security Act, and the Civilian Conservation Corps.

i believe the answer is:

-   william jennings bryan is a democrat while mckinley was a republican

at that time, the segment of population that choose for democratic party were the voters with low economic background and vice versa

- william jennings has support of populists and wants to have inflation to farmers while mckinley has support of bankers and businessmen , doesn't want inflation

the fixed value of gold make the large business able to stack up their gold without   being worried that it would devaluated.

- william jennings supported the silver standard while mckinley supported the gold standard

according to jenning, using other metal beside gold could the poor people to have more purchasing power and them advance in the society.
