Stop getting your history from the left wing media. Saying that doesn't help much does it? FDR's new deal never got unemployment below 20%, the jobless rate went up in 38, not down. Unemployment was at it's lowest the year before the new deal part 2 was enacted, and went up the following year. Of course the war started at this point so further data gets mucked up, but once the war started unemployment took a nosedive.
TARP was throwing money at irresponsible people who were greedy and screwed up. This new new deal is throwing money at irresponsible people who helped the last group of irresponsible people screw up.
