Hoover felt the Depression was just part of the Free Enterprise system at work and the economy would eventually straighten itself out. He did not believe that government should take an active role in providing direct relief to those out of work, or to the local and state governments. That was the job of private charities. States could also regulate their own economy without federal government interference. One of the beneficial actions on the part of Hoover was to approve the Reconstruction How_did_hoover_and_Franklin_D._Roosevelt_handle_the_great_depressionCorporation which provided relief to businesses, banks, and railroads. Money was lent to those business operations that were basically sound.
