Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"any appropriations to carry out any plan are and will be within the complete control of the Congress."

"for the greatest benefit of its citizens both present and future, and for the greatest benefit to the United States."

"this legislation will be helpful in the creation of employment and in the stimulation of industry, business, and agriculture throughout the areas involved."

"We must proceed with equal vigor to liquidate war agencies and reconvert the Government to peace."
