Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"When the cost of living spirals upward, everybody becomes poorer."

"The American people can also be sure that I shall not hesitate to use every power vested in me to accomplish the defeat of our enemies."

"It is not necessary for me to enumerate again the disastrous results of a runaway cost of living."

"The rising cost of living can be controlled, providing that all elements making up the cost of living are controlled at the same time."
