Four Freedoms Under Siege Serialized
"In the future days which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms."
The first is freedom of speech and expression-everywhere in the world.
The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way-everywhere in the world.
The third is freedom from want, which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants-everywhere in the world.
The fourth is freedom from fear, which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor-anywhere in the world.**
--Franklin Delano Roosevelt,
Annual Message to Congress,
January 6, 1941

Found this a bit sad. But We could Revive this Stance Together, would make a whole lot of things so much better
