Reply #7: I think there is a movement to overturn social legislation. [View All]

[MissMarple]

There are people in the U.S. who wish the New Deal and the Great Society had never happened. They link social legislation and the "permissiveness" they believe is destroying our culture together and blame "liberal" bogeymen for everything they personally consider as wrong with our society. For some reason they have divorced themselves from reality and refuse to see their own faults and evils and the all too real issues that our country faces.

Also, the number of Supreme Court justices is not fixed in the Constitution and has varied over time from I think five to the current nine. Tradition keeps it at nine. But if it would benefit George I think he would try what Roosevelt contemplated and appoint more. And he might be able to get away with it, just another unstable, divisive thing among the others that he has perpetrated on this country.
