The correct answer is C) that the program gave too much power to the government.
A criticism of the works progress administration’s creation and infrastructure jobs was that the program gave too much power to the government.
President Roosevelt’s works progress administration of 1935 considered many infrastructure programs for the benefit of the U.S. citizens. But it also considered The Federal Project Number One. This was a program aimed to help writers, musicians, and artists. The aim of Roosevelt was to get jobs to these people in order to entertain the American citizens during those difficult times. However, it received many critics that considered that the program gave too much power to the government.
