LAD #28: Wilson's First Inaugural

Wilson began his address elaborating how we shouldn't fear, but should trust the government in times of hardship and unemployment. He explained how industry's peak contained corruption, and this corruption needed to be revised.  He believed that employment was key to the nation's success, but policies that would have needed to be put in place to increase employment may have had the ability to harm the economy immensely. Beneficial reforms that he desired to put in place were sanitary laws, pure food laws, and improved labor laws. Overall, Wilson explained how reform was needed to improve the nation as a whole.
