"Never in the history of the world has any measure been brought in here so insidiously designed so as to prevent business recovery, to enslave workers, and to prevent any possibility of the employers providing work for the people." -- Representative John Taber (R-NY), 1935-04-19, regarding the Social Security Act of 1935, which he failed to keep from being enacted 1935-08-14.

[So how'd that prediction of doom work out, again? For more quotes in this vein, here's where I got this quotaion.]
