LAD #28: Wilson's First Inaugural Address

Wilson's First Inaugural Address
In his Inaugural Address he talked about the shift from republican to democratic power under the presidency. At the midterm election this shift happened in the Senete but it was not until his election that it happened in the presidency as well. Wilson says that this shift will help the people because the rebulicans push for wealth and big buisness but this is not always a positive. He came up with goals to get rid of these problems by lowering the tariff, reforming the national banking system, reforming the corruption and oppressiveness of big business, stoping the pollution and waste in the nation, and reforming labor laws in order to better protect workers. He belived that this would better help the nation and people.
