What are those AFTs? CCC is Brazil was "Comando de Caça aos Comunistas"
(hint: Caça = Hunt, the other words are the same in English). And
WWW sounds terribly like WWIII... I hope I don't preach the same
solution to 29, meaning a WW? (OTOH, it might not be so bad... Billions
dead in the first minutes, and let the survivors think how to
manage the remains of the scorched Earth).
CCC = Civilian Conservation Corps

WWW? Dunno. Did Jon mean WPA? That would be Works Progress
Administration.

The umbrella label for the whole thing was the New Deal.

various "alphabet soup" programs....
