Explanation:

Opponents of the New Deal, especially conservatives, were concerned about the increased role of the government in the economy. The New Deal involved various programs and policies that required government intervention, which some saw as an overreach of government power.

• The New Deal did not eliminate unemployment and poverty (it reduced them but full elimination didn't happen until World War - II).
• Promotion of international cooperation was not a main reason for opposition.
• Some liberals thought it was not doing enough (not conservatives who were the main opposition group in terms of government power concerns), while conservatives thought it was too much government intervention.

Answer:

Critics believed it expanded government power and intervention in the economy.
