"Crisis"

I rise to the occasion

        and above the noise...

"I see in the near Future 

a Crisis approaching that unnerves me to tremble

for the Safety of my Country...

Corporations have been enthroned and an Era of Corruption

in High Places will follow,

and the many Powers of the Country will endeavor to prolong

its reign by working upon the Prejudices of the People

until all Wealth is aggregated

in  Few Hands

and the 

Republic

is 

destroyed."

United States President;

Abraham Lincoln

21 November, 1864
