Hmmmm, this quote sounds familiar:

"The lessons of history, confirmed by the evidence immediately before me, show conclusively that continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fibre.

-Franklin Delano Roosevelt 1935 State of the Union Address
