Defending Freedom of Contract

The progressive movement that began in the late nineteenth century was a nonviolent coup d’état changing the United States of America from a republic that promoted equal rights for all to a democracy where the majority rules. As a result moral and social justice was and is used by the federal government to protect the rights of some while mitigating the rights of others. Patrick Bohan who has studied constitutional law in depth examines the revolution in detail in this treatise demonstrating how freedom of contract can be applied to protect the fundamental rights of each citizen equally. The author evaluates hundreds of laws cases and examples of justice gone wrong for issues such as slavery abortion rights elections welfare rights free speech freedom of religion civil rights property rights contract rights gay rights alien rights and other important topics that polarize Americans.
