“The government is the potent omnipresent teacher. For good or ill it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.
To declare that the end justifies the means — to declare that the government may commit crimes — would bring terrible retribution.”
Louis D. Brandeis
Louis Brandeis was the first Jooish judge on the SCOTUS. Born and raised here in KY.
A truthful quote to be sure, but the more Jooish the SCOTUS has become, the more power it usurps.
Louis Brandeis was president of the Zionist Organization of America, a co-founder of the American Jewish Congress, and the primary US promoter of the “Balfour Declaration” during the Wilson administration.
