That you believe they're unconstitutional flies in the face of case law for the past 70 years.
And I'm not playing this game. You said they packed the court, then backed up and said they started "ruling his way". It's the same court, jeff. We know that FDR exerted influence but he did not scare the court into passing unconstitutional laws. The court felt they were constitutional, the same court that felt previous legislation was unconstitutional. This time they were fine because of better wording.
I'm not buying your backpedaling. You never own up to a single word you say.
Large parts of The New Deal were NOT dismantled before the war. Instead of moving goals, maybe just one time you can admit that your statement was completely false.
Unless you're about to tell me how it was dismantled in 1938/9. I'm still waiting on that one. If you have any attempt to redeem yourself, you will address this now instead of engaging once again in the "that's not what i REALLY meant' roulette.
