Does anyone have sources for Abraham Lincoln quotes of his regretting the results of the Civil War? Someone posted one not long ago, a few days, a week maybe, but I can't find it. It had to do with the bankers and the like I think. Anyway, greatful for any help, I've searched on Google.

This what you mean?

On Nov. 21, 1864 President Abraham Lincoln wrote a letter to Colonel William F. Elkins. he wrote: "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 prejudices 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 war."

The war was Lincoln's fault so he had no one to blame but Lincoln. He was a tyrant.

The quotation is fake according to Lincoln's own secretary:

The link worked for me. It's a clipping from the NYT dated 1896 in which Lincoln's secretary claimed it was false.

Actually, if you ever read any of the books about Lincoln written and meticulously footnoted by Dr. Thomas DiLorenzo, you would have no problem believing it is a false statement. Lincoln was a creature of the railroad giants, as well as the other large industrialists of his time. He was bought and paid for. How's the old saying go, the more things change the more they stay the same? That saying describes our political system to a tee.
