FDR quote

In gathering books for a display) Obama, FDR, Lincoln and ML King)on the main floor of the Library, I researched FDR a bit, and found this great quote.

Some Roosevelt critics in the wealthy business community said he was leading the United States into communism. During the Great Depression he said to his business detractors: "The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."

Emphasis added.
