Gerald Ford actually said...

"I had no longer been President than 30 days or more when we were capitulated into the worst economic recession that this country has had in 40 years."

"We have a crop insurance program, we have a disaster program to help the unfortunate farmer who has lost a crop because of the weather or other unforeseen difficulties."

"I don’t think it is a mere coincidence that these 3 very successful years have been years when the Government left you alone and let you produce without a lot of bureaucratic interference from the Nat..."

"I am opposed to that program, period."
