Summarize the "basic things" that Roosevelt says Americans expect from their political and economic systems.

These basic things tell us that we must not leave important factors despite all changes in political and economic systems in which there should be a support for all people in all ages, wherein we should provide jobs, security, special privilege and a better system for the youth, working men and women, citizens under the coverage of old-age pensions and unemployment and for everyone to sustain equality of opportunity.

On his State of the Union speech in 1941, president Roosevelt mentioned the basic things that americans can expect from their political and economic systems. They are:

-Equal opportunities for the young and others

-Jobs for those who can work

-Security for those who need it

-Nobody can have special privileges

-Preservation of civil liberties for everybody

-Enjoyment of scientific progress and constant rise of standard of living
