Korporace usedly na trůn a bude následovat období korupce na nejvyšších místech a finanční mogulové v zemi budou usilovat o prodloužení své vlády apelováním na předsudky lidu, dokud se veškeré bohatství nesoustředí v rukách úzké skupiny a republika nebude zničena.

Originál:

The money powers prey on the nation in times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. The banking powers are more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. They denounce as public enemies all who question their methods or throw light upon their crimes.

I have two great enemies, the Southern Army in front of me, and the bankers in the rear. Of the two, the one at my rear is my greatest foe. As a most undesirable consequence of the war, corporations have been enthroned, and an era of corruption in high places will follow. The money power will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the wealth is aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is destroyed.

Peněžní zájmy okrádají zemi v dobách míru a konspirují proti ní v dobách protivenství. Bankovní zájmy jsou despotičtější než monarchie, nestoudnější než autokracie, sobečtější než byrokracie. Za veřejné nepřátele označují všechny, kdo zpochybňují jejich metody nebo vrhají světlo na jejich zločiny.

Mám dva velké nepřátele, jižní armádou před sebou a bankéře v zádech. Z těchto dvou je mým největším nepřítelem ten za mými zády. Jako nanejvýš nežádoucí důsledek války byly na trůn dosazeny korporace a bude následovat éra korupce na nejvyšších místech. Moc peněz bude usilovat o prodloužení své vlády tím, že bude působit na předsudky lidí, dokud nebude bohatství shromážděno v rukou nemnohých a republika nebude zničena.

Corporations have been enthroned

I have found the earliest appearance of this quote yet.

Journal of United Labor

WHAT WILL THE FUTURE BRING

To those standing on the boundaries of the great unknown it is sometimes given to pierce the veil and give words of warning concerning events to come.

Under the halo of such an inspiration spake one for whose life the assassin was already seeking and who spake while almost within the shadow.

“Yes, we may all congratulate ourselves that this cruel war is nearing a close. It has cost a vast amount of treasure and blood. The best blood of the flower of American youth has been freely offered upon our country's altar that the nation might live. It has been, indeed, a trying hour for the republic; but I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. As a result of the war corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudice of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the republic is destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of the war. God grant that my suspicion may prove groundless.”

Thus spake the sainted Lincoln. These are not the words of a brain crazed with fanaticism, but of a patriot purified by the great ordeal through which he had almost passed. Less than twenty-five years have gone and the prophesy is partially fulfilled.

The mutterings of the coming storm may be heard on every hand, and who can foretell the end?

In very helplessness the finite appeals to the infinite for help and guidance.

The alleged quotation also appears in the 20 May 1898 periodical "The Flaming Sword" here: http://books.google.com/books?id=ylcsAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA32-IA199&lpg=PA32-IA199&dq=%E2%80%9CYes,+we+may+all+congratulate+ourselves+that+this+cruel+war+is+nearing+a+close.+It+has+cost+a+vast+amount+of+treasure+and+blood.+The+best+blood%22&source=bl&ots=V6kt2tfhKg&sig=VvhdKUjFjoW3PBNIgXxpETu3LB4&hl=en#v=onepage&q=%E2%80%9CYes%2C%20we%20may%20all%20congratulate%20ourselves%20that%20this%20cruel%20war%20is%20nearing%20a%20close.%20It%20has%20cost%20a%20vast%20amount%20of%20treasure%20and%20blood.%20The%20best%20blood%22&f=false
