Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Until the 1930s, the Supreme Court had a laissez-faire approach and restricted the authority of the government to regulate business, prevented the government from levying an income tax and refused, with some exceptions, to allow the delegation of broad discretionary power to administrative agencies. This approach changed with the New Deal and the Court's interpretation of the Commerce Clause, which led to a shift towards a more interventionist approach.
