Big news! We finally got that horrible Hoover out of office, and now a new, better man has taken his place: Roosevelt.
Roosevelt is super optimistic about the future, and I can't help but be too. He says that the depression is bad enough that he thinks the federal government has the responsibility to get involved. I'm so glad that we finally have someone in power who's saying that! Hoover was too scared to put the economy in the hands of the government.
Today my family and some of our neighbors gathered around a radio and listened to his speech. He said that he was starting a "new deal," and had created a "100 day plan." Basically, he plans on making a bunch of reforms and passing a bunch of acts in the first 100 days of his presidency. I think it's amazing! I'm so glad to have someone who is actually taking care of us now. Finally, my family will be able to get back into working and find an actual house to live in.
