The conservatives felt that the country was becoming a dictatorship in the hands of FDR. They believed that he was making the country more like a socialist one and this was bad for the people of America whose entire idea of American identity was based on exactly the opposite of that. The liberals criticized him because he didn't do enough. They believed that the new deal should have included many more reforms such as create state funded pensions or have universal healthcare nation wide. They wanted even more socialist tendencies to be included in everyday life.
