The answer to this question is the letter "D" which is "government often supplies public goods and that are too big or risky for private actors to address". This is the federal government's role when in terms of providing electricity to rural areas. This happened in the year 1930's to address the problem and economic depression in rural areas and it was Franklin Delano Roosevelt who is the president that year.
