Answer 2

Answer:

They believed it gave the government too much power in the economy.  

Explanation:

The New Deal consisted of a series of federal measures, projects and programs, enacted under FDR's administration, that were characterized for actively getting involved in the U.S. economy and in American lives: they provided relief to the poor, and those in need, provided employment, gave financial benefits to retiree people, reformed the infrastructure, regulated the banking industry, interfered with business and labor practices, among others.

Most conservatives opposed Roosevelt's measures because they believed that the government should not be too involved in the nation affairs or the states, it should not interfere in business practices and it should not spend government's funds on social programs.
