From the Paper:

"Other critics such as the Communist Party within the United States also, while opposed to many elements of the New Deal, were also willing to work with government in order to satisfy everybody's ideals. It therefore appears that the New Deal at least started out as a system that many critics, although disillusioned, were willing to work with. Roosevelt seems to have encouraged such an ideology by his own simple statement that if something done does not work, then something else should be attempted. This is more than can be said of most political movements in the past of the United States."
