Carta de Franklin D. Roosevelt al Coronel Edward House (1933)

 

La verdad del asunto es, como usted y yo sabemos, que un elemento financiero en los centros más grandes ha sido dueño del Gobierno desde los días de Andrew Jackson.


The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson, and I am not wholly excepting the Administration of Woodrow Wilson The country is going through a repetition of Jackson's fight with the Bank of the United States, only on a far bigger and broader basis.


Letter to Col. Edward Mandell House (21 November 1933); as quoted in F.D.R.: His Personal Letters, 1928-1945, edited by Elliott Roosevelt (New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1950), pg. 373
