How did the new deal reflect a continuation of the progressive movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries? in what ways was the new deal a departure from progressive ideals? in general, how new was the new deal?

In a sense, the New Deal was progressive. Our Nation, along with most,
tend to become conservative with the passage of time. If you ask me, one
of the main reasons is that Old Wealth wants to stay current. 
And opposition to the New Deal ? Some is fair and well-founded ; some is
just the bellow of ' John Birchers " weeping over ' my capital.'
