We'll be discussing the concept of economic liberty within the context of decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court. We'll be discussing economic, legal, and constitutional issues.
We'll begin with Lochner vs. New York, a decision in 1909 that remains highly controversial to this day. It involved the constitutionality of a New York law setting the maximum number of hours employees were permitted to work.
