While Johnson was able to slow down the industrialists and protect the powers of the presidency, he could not stop them and the lawmakers they controlled from ushering in a new economic order and an age of big business. Following the Civil War, the robber barons—men such as Jay Gould, John D. Rockefeller, Cornelius Vanderbilt and John Jacob Astor—and other financiers and industrialists seized control of the institutions of the country through their unscrupulously gained wealth. | While Johnson was able to slow down the industrialists and protect the powers of the presidency, he could not stop them and the lawmakers they controlled from ushering in a new economic order and an age of big business.

== The example of Lincoln == | |||
The [[Goddess of Freedom]] has called us to follow in the footsteps of Lincoln: | |||
<blockquote> | |||
Contemplate with me now yourself as an individualization of the flame of freedom. Think of yourself multiplied by the action of this body of the Lord. Then think of Abraham Lincoln as he stood alone in the White House, as he stood alone and withstood all of the rebellion of the fallen ones who sought to separate out of the Union and to defy all the fiery core of the Father-Mother God in the original thirteen—the mandala of initiation of Christ and his apostles. | |||
Think how he had encountered already the international bankers, the Illuminati and those who sought to use the Civil War to take over America for their schemes of power and control. Think how he defied all of those who had their selfish interests. Think of how he stood for the flame of Mother. Think of how that president was willing to lay down his life for the love of the Mother and her children, and then ask yourself: “Can I not do the same? Can I do less? And if I will do the same, will not the same hosts of the L<small>ORD</small> buoy up my soul in the light of victory?”<ref>The Goddess of Freedom, “Releasing the Flame of Freedom Enshrined in the Capitals of the Nations,” Part 2, {{POWref|44|21|, May 27, 2001}}</ref> | |||
