That George Will, what a fun-loving troll is he. The article is long but worth it. These "libertarians" want to unwind minimum wage, health and safety regulations, eminent domain, the right to union membership and just about every other feature of the modern state. And in the challenges to Obamacare they came thisclose to doing it.
“A full-fledged return to Lochner would put a constitutional cloud over a whole host of laws that we all take for granted today,” said Sam Bagenstos, a liberal constitutional scholar at the University of Michigan who has argued cases before the Supreme Court. “Laws guaranteeing workers the right to join a union without being fired, and the right to earn a minimum wage and receive overtime if working more than 40 hours a week, laws protecting worker safety, and laws protecting workers and customers against discrimination based on race or other protected statuses, just for starters.”
Sounds like a GOP wet dream. Christ, we've got to get to work and keep the White House.
