abraham lincoln on corporations

Would President Lincoln approve of today’s Republican party on stripping unions of their power and supporting? Corporate abuse? Abraham Lincoln: “I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. 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 prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.” Abraham Lincoln “I thank God that we have a system of labor where there can be a strike.” Answer by O-BOMB-AYes, he would.

What do you think of this Plot? I am a developing a Historical Fiction Novel and I want to know what you think of my plot so far. The setting spans the Civil War and centers around Abraham Lincoln. I plan not to tell the story of the Civil War in the straight-forward historical way. “Since its formation, the United States of America has kept an illusive secret from the world, and the only one who knew of this was the President himself. But when a past evil comes to haunt America, this secret is left to Martin Van Buren alone. Two Decades later, Abraham Lincoln becomes President at a time of great peril. He stumbles upon a secret long forgotten. Lincoln must then choose whether to utilize this secret to save the…
