Z, > Unemployment dropped significantly between the beginning of the WPA and 1937. When New Deal programs were scaled back in '37, unemployment rose again.

Once again, you're describing a safety net, not a "stimulus."

There was no evidence that the Great Depression was coming to an end before 1937. Local ups and downs did nothing to change the overall picture. People became dependent on government-created projects. Which politically suited four-term president FDR.
