LAD #28: Wilson's First Inaugural Address

President Woodrow Wilson emphasizes the change that has occurred in the government. the government has been consumed by democrats, and although a previously underrepresented party going power; this did not mean that it would be coupled with a transition of ideals. The Democrats showed aspects of thing that were familiar and yet reinvigorated by new perspective. Wilson continues by praising the morally strong and listing the problems that needed to be addressed in his term. this included the need to get natural resources while being in the middle of a hostile competition in industry. This led to a chaos in the corporate sector, justice needed to be the new goal in government. The tariff violets the principles of taxation, a banking system was poor at adjusting to the changes of the time, industrial systems don't have there rights of labor and natural resources their top priority and the farmers haven't received the benefits of having a big business. The government was instrument of justice that would bring equity to social classes and other ares in which had been wronged. Wilson closes by asking for the help of humanity and not the party.
