Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"Millions of Americans still live in habitations which not only fail to provide the physical benefits of modern civilization, but breed disease and impair the health of future generations."

"Ten years ago public erection of fifty-one big, carefully planned community projects, replacing festering slum areas, would have seemed incredible."

"A Nation cannot function as a healthy democracy with part of its citizens living under good conditions and part forced to live under circumstances inimical to the general welfare."

"The reduction continues to be an essential requirement of a full and balanced economic recovery for our country."
