Lorena Rojo 3-30-21 Professor Crowley HIST 1301 Hoover and the Crash I would not wait at all for the economy to fix itself. As president it is my duty to keep America running so I would take immediate action. First, I would encourage business owners to keep their employees, so the unemployment rate does not skyrocket. I would give emergency funds to the business so they can keep running. Cutting taxes, I think would help as well since people are probably going to need extra money if they are being laid off. Setting up food banks for people would give them a helping hand as well. In the past the economy did recover but by preventing more of a downfall I think it could shorten the crash.
