Reagan on America, and Free Enterprise

“The history of America is the history of a nation at work -- a nation of farmers, manufacturers, and merchants joining together to build a better society.”

March 27, 1985

“The history of America is the history of a nation at work -- a nation of farmers, manufacturers, and merchants joining together to build a better society. The dedication and commitment of these early citizens provided the foundation for a growing and prosperous America -- an America built on individual initiative, a competitive spirit, and an intense pride in the achievements of a new nation.”
