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
