In these 184 years, he said, our nation has demonstrated the strength to survive distress. TTE went on to say: -"We have gone through seven wars, with a series of crises before and after each one. We have gone- through three great inflations, with accompanying crises. We have gone through a dozen crises of corruption in government."
