Sorry Kendall, I didn't see your question.By implying that the Democratic Party single handedly is responsible for: Social Security, Minimum Wage, Overtime, Women's Right to Vote and the creation of Labor Unions, you are also implying that the Republicans were opposed to them.
Without doing some historical research, I cannot refute your claims. However, I will do the research I promise you.
Gee, whatever happened to that good old Democratic philosophy espoused by your hero, John Fitzgerald Kennedy? "Ask not what your government can do for you; ask what YOU can do for your government!"
