"...And, until the Supreme Court lost its nerve in the 1930s, that kind of federal spending hardly existed....

SCOTUS didn't "lose its nerve," FDR (the first all-socialist, all-the-time POTUS) stacked the court with fellow Progressivists.

Wrong. He THREATENED to stack the court, and then, with no change in the court, the decisions started going his way. Look up “the change in time that saved nine.”
