Overall, Hoover's approach toward the economy differed from Coolidge's in that Hoover believed in government intervention and public assistance programs to combat the effects of the Great Depression, while Coolidge favored limited government involvement and believed in businesses taking responsibility for prosperity. Hoover also saw labor unions as a potential vehicle for improving workers' living standards, which was a departure from Coolidge's stance.
