Franklin Roosevelts Second Inaugural Address

• I see millions of families trying to live on
  incomes so meager that the pall of family
  disaster hangs over them day by day.
• I see millions whose daily lives in city and on
  farm continue under conditions labeled indecent
  by a so-called polite society half a century ago.

Franklin Roosevelts Second Inaugural Address

• I see millions denied education, recreation, and
  the opportunity to better their lot and the lot
  of their children.
• I see millions lacking the means to buy the
  products of farm and factory and by their poverty
  denying work and productiveness to many other
  millions.
• I see one-third of a nation ill-housed, ill-clad,
  ill-nourished.
