All of the following statements about the New Deals are true EXCEPT A programs helped build the nation's infrastructure B they aimed to bring relief, recovery, and reform thousands of federally-funded jobs were created D their efforts directly ended the Great Depression

Answer 1

The answer is **D**.While the New Deal programs did provide relief, recovery, and reform, and created thousands of jobs, ultimately they did *not* directly end the Great Depression. Most historians agree that the increased production demands of World War II were the primary factor that pulled the United States out of the Depression. The New Deal programs did, however, help alleviate the worst effects of the Depression and laid the groundwork for future economic growth.
