Lets see - the theoretical aboriginal law that turned into tribal sovereignty; the EPA; OSHA.
Not to mention, Nixon played a direct role in sending Judge Boldt from Nixon’s unconstitutional Wage & Price Control Board to the Washington Federal Courts so Boldt, married to an Indian, could take our livelihood away and give it to the Tribes based on their race. There’s a lot more, but I’m not going to go further, except to say that after Nixon, the county had lost many basic freedoms - most of which city dwellers did not miss then and the loss of which they still have not noticed.
So, when Freepers ask themselves “what was the watershed moment that we became an official oligarchy rather than a republic”, your answer to that question is...
EPA-OSHA-Nixon-Boldt-W&PCB.
Or sumthin.
