"The welfare, the happiness, the energy and spirit of the men and women who do the daily work ... is the underlying necessity of all prosperity.... There can be nothing wholesome unless their life is wholesome; there can be no contentment unless they are contented." Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924), U.S. president. The New Freedom, p. 290 (1913). |
"The government of the United States at present is a foster-child of the special interests. It is not allowed to have a voice of its own. It is told at every move, "Don't do that, You will interfere with our prosperity." And when we ask: "where is our prosperity lodged?" a certain group of gentlemen say, "With us."" Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924), U.S. president. The New Freedom, pp. 58-59 (1913). |
