Why is there no mention of programs that still affect the United States today? For instance, Social Security, FDIC and SEC. Are these not important?

Hoover was a Keynesian! When will people learn this. The Smoot-Holley tariff was a large cause of the Depression. The Great Depression ended after the war when the New Deal policies were ended.

WW2 involved massive public work programs, similar to the New Deal - this is something that historical revisionists always ignore.

But the New Deal DID certainly help the country shift in the right direction, with the decrease in unemployment and increases in fiscal growth. Also, programs such as the FDIC helped to prevent the bank failures, post-Crash.

If you noticed, 1938 had an increase in unemployment. This happened after Roosevelt cut some federal programs due to Republican pressure.

You should have also included how borrowing and spending or printing and spending money causes inflation of money, where people can't afford goods and services due to rising prices (from devaluation of money).

Also, how deflation isn't bad. It means businesses will go bankrupt, but the most efficient will survive and expand once the recession is over. Also, government doesn't tend to create projects that will prosper in the long term as you cant predict aggregate demand in the future.
