Read the following excerpt.

True they have tried, but their efforts have been cast in the pattern of an outworn tradition. Faced by failure of credit they have
the lending of more money. Stripped of the lure of profit by which to induce our people to follow their false leadership, they have resorted to
exhortations, pleading tearfully for restored confidence. They know only the rules of a generation of self-seekers. They have no vision, and when
there is no vision the people perish.
The money changers have fled from their high seats in the temple of our civilization. We may now restore that temple to the ancient truths
The measure of the restoration lies in the extent to which we apply social values more noble than mere monetary profit.
- Franklin D. Rooseyelt
