Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"In the modern industrial world combinations are absolutely necessary;"

"It is a matter of humiliation to the Nation that there should not be on our statute books provision to meet and partially to atone for cruel misfortune when it comes upon a man through no fault of his..."

"Under no circumstances should the injured employee or his surviving dependents be required to bring suit against the Government."

"The burden of the trade risk should be placed upon the Government."
