The Republican Congress began immediately to try to turn the clock back, and the first one they took a whack at was the farmer.
One of them is the Fair Labor Standards Act which, for the first time in our history, set a floor under wages in the form of a minimum wage.
The Republican politicians don't like the New Deal.
The Republicans have the money because the big corporations have found out they can get what they want from the Republican Party.
