Abstract
Roosevelt does not consider the federal government the agent of any particular interest, only public interest. During his presidency, he argues for public accountability of corporations and files more than 40 antitrust suits. Roosevelt also introduces the Square Deal and pressures Congress to pass the Pure Food and Drug Act, an 8-hour day for workers, compensation for industrial accidents, inheritance and income taxes, and far-reaching conservation programs.
