What a dark day for American democracy it was - February 5, 1937, the day
the crisis over President Roosevelt's struggle with the Supreme Court's
blocking of the New Deal was "resolved" when Roosevelt was deported to
Canada. How might America be different today, if minimum wages, the National
Labor Relations Act, and Social Security had not been overturned by the
Supreme Court? Maybe 60% of our fellow citizens wouldn't still be living in
poverty.
