B. White quotes | All over the Union, people are coming to feel that they have no control over the course of affairs... ‘We vote; we are offered the platform we want; we elect the men who stand on that platform; and we get absolutely nothing.’ So they begin to ask: ‘What is the use of voting? We know that the machines of both parties are subsidized by the same persons, and therefore it is useless to turn in either direction.’more Woodrow Wilson quotes | We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the world.more Woodrow Wilson quotes |
