Thought people needed to succeed through their own efforts

What Hoover Did: Opposed any direct aid or welfare
because it would “weaken people’s self respect and undermine the nation’s moral fiber.” People should take care of themselves.
Urged businesses not to cut wages or lay off workers.
Asked workers not to ask for higher wages or go on strike.
Asked private charities to raise money for the poor.
