Click on image to zoom in
President Roosevelt stands by his economic and trust-busting policies despite the financial panic, believing that such a crisis was inevitable under the American financial system and that his policies mitigated the damage that would have otherwise been done by a panic. Roosevelt also does not care when New York financiers criticize him, as he neither respects nor admires individuals who care about acquiring wealth over any other pursuit.
