for those who don't know, the phrase "the switch in time that saved nine" is a clever play on "a stitch in time saves nine", an idiom saying that preventive maintenance is more efficient than fixing things after they become an issue. I was the (probably) rare kid who learned about this case and thus heard the pun first, and was terribly confused.

@@iammrbeat and it was increased by .05 the following year, and within 12 years it tripled. Sometimes you have to look past just the passage of a law and look at why he was able to get it passed, and then take a look at the effect it has down the line. There's a bit missing here - your information is accurate, but a deeper dive into context (e.g. the public actually became a bit trepidatious when FDR started talking about adding 5-6 judges onto the court in his speeches. Also, his attempts to purge members of congress that worked so well after his first term, failed after his 2nd) would be a good thing. (Forget about the fact that there had been decades of bloody, murderous labor vs capital/employer conflict that led up to the NLRB, FLSA, and The Wagner Act, which after WWII the business class took great pains in dismantling as much as they possibly could). Additionally, the thing I never hear from anyone anymore re: FDR, and his magnum opus, which exists in plain sight, but no one sees any longer, is the very fact that HE. SAVED. CAPITALISM!!! HE..SAVED....HIS....OWN....CLASS!!! from completely losing an economic system that advantaged them (the ruling class), which if judged by the allocation, organization, and distribution of goods, resources, and services, was nothing less than a total catastrophic failure by the time he became President in 1933. The Communists (our own Communists) inside the US were armed and ready for overthrow. FDR brought their missive to the wealth barons of the day to get them to agree to a 63% business tax rate at the top of the revenue scale. That was what FDR came into then. I wonder, at times, if saving our market economy was ultimately a good thing, but it doesn't exist anymore without him and his improvisations (make no mistake, that's what they were) that comprised what became the New Deal. So, a bit of a more sincere treatment is justified, I believe, when you educate folks about the mendacious, horny paraplegic.

I was half-expecting a Lochner idea leaning result, so learning that this was specifically the case that represented a shift away from that was neat! An idea that is interesting is that to preserve the insulation of the court from political pressures, Justice Roberts chose to be influenced by those very same politics in a different way (almost certainly for the better, though, I can't imagine politics being any better with 99+ justices in the Supreme Court in a worst case scenario where the precedent runs wild).

There are big problems here. 1. The Supreme Court upheld most regulations on business in the Lochner era. At most 20% of cases that made it to the Supreme Court saw the regulation struck down. 2. Owen Roberts already changed his views in a 1934 case called Nebbia v. New York. He had been ready to overturn Adkins in a 1935 case called Tipaldo, but the challenger to a similar law didn't ask for the Court to overturn Adkins. In West Coast Hotel the challenger requested it, and so it was done.

Good video. Glad you're going into the Lochner era pre New Deal cases because some of them are fascinating. Some suggestions for future SCOUS briefs are Pierce v Society of Sisters which is right to send children to private school. Could partner it with Meyer v Nebraska which is about a right to learn in foreign languages. Other cases that may be of interest from that era involve Kansas economic regulation and some Kansas history. So Coppage v Kansas which was a case about a ban on yellow dog contracts, Wolff Packing Co v Court of Industrial Relations struck down compulsory bargaining laws. Dorchy v Kansas was a companion to Wolff.

Meyer v. Nebraska is more about parental rights to rear children as one desires vs. how the state wants to educate its residents. Yes, it began with Nebraska making English solely official at all levels of government and how that affected the teaching of other languages outside government-run school facilities, but the justices explained that the state really just took away the choice of a parent to educate their child as they wished. However, it's a pretty interesting case as it was one of the first times the 14th Amendment was ever used to safeguard civil liberties.

It also had to do with the fact that the original legislation in FDR's first 100 days was written quickly, haphazardly. Well meaning but poorly written. It was done at a break neck pace to tackle the Great Depression. It took a couple of years to make it's way to the SCOTUS where it was overturned. Congress then created legislation to replace it which was more carefully written to stand up to SCOTUS scrutiny with the SCOTUS decisions taken into account. A couple more years it made its way back... The new legislation wasn't enough to change the minds of the Four Horseman but it did sway Justice Roberts and Chief Justice Hughes. And remember this court in twice overturned the convictions of the Scottsboro Boys (Powell v. Alabama and Norris v. Alabama). In Brown v. Mississippi they unanimously overturned murder convictions where the dirt-poor black defendants had ther confessions tortured out of them. And in Near v. Minnesota they ruled against prior restraint by the government.

No, Congress has total power to add or remove Justices at will. Besides, it was worded in such a way that it shouldn't have been seen as a threat, but nobody was stupid enough to not see it that way. FDR asked Congress to add a Justice for every already existing Justice that was over 70 up to I think 15 total Justices (so, 6 extra). Remember, there are checks and balances between branches. This is one of them. Although, you could take up this argument with the Constitution which leaves the Supreme Court and the entire judicial branch and how it looks like to Congress! The only mentioned Justice is the Chief Justice and their only job is to substitute the president of the Senate whenever impeaching a president happens, that's it.

Washington State, unlike most states, as far as I'm aware, ties it's minimum wage with the rate of inflation, so that it rises with inflation, rather than remaining static for decades by politicians, so businesses can plan accordingly around it. In other words, the value of the Federal Minimum Wage over time gets dragged down by inflation and the fact that it takes an Act of Congress to raise the Federal Minimum Wage means that it seems to be like many aspects of the US Congress, deadlocked (Democrats want to increase it, Republicans want it to stay the same)* *: this is probably oversimplified, but based on a video I've seen about the Federal Minimum Wage by Vox, that's what I've heard, I don't want to pretend to be an economic expert

The few countries that don't have an official government min wage have highly regulated/pro labor rights economies with overwhelmingly unionized workforces that collectively negotiate min wages for specific industries. For example, Norway has no minimum wage but the construction unions have created an industry wide minimum wage around 215 NOK or $20 USD, same with restaurant unions that set theirs at 190 NOK or $18 USD.

Hold up! They denied her the minimum wage, because a federal case had found a *federal* minimum wage to be unconditional, how did that mean a *state* minimum was also unconstitutional?! That's a dumb decision on their part!

Actually, for a brief time before that it was indeed 25 cents an hour (assuming you're talking about the federal minimum wage law passed)

My understanding is that Owen Roberts was something of a swing vote before this. My theory is that he couldn't stand to vote on the same side as James Clark McReynolds, on the theory that McReynolds was always wrong.

I'm not a fan of the so-called "freedom" to enter contracts no matter how bad they are or how naive people can be about them, particularly the less educated, and I especially hate how it can be interpreted as a way to block labor regulations. Sometimes you have to protect people from their own ignorance or stupidity.

And from unfortunate circumstances. Someone 'voluntarily' entering a contract under threat of starvation is not free contracting. It's just taking advantage of people to leverage away their freedom.

im using your videos to help me with some quizbowl/nerd club questions about SCOTUS rulings in school and they've been extremely helpful! i've been a big fan of your channel for a long time, can you consider doing some more cases that were instrumental in setting up the courts power in the early years? thanks for the great content :)

That whole court packing ordeal really shredded FDR's second term and it didn't matter anyway because Supreme Court vacancies started opening up later that year. A big blunder on his part. Threw the Republican Party a badly needed life jacket.

I mentioned this in a comment once before, but I would still love for you to cover Oncale v. Sundowner Offshore Services, inc., 523 U.S. 75 (1998). Long and short of it, it was a unanimous decision that, under Title VII, sexual harassment cases could still be taken to court in the event that the plaintiff and defendant are of the same sex.
