Holds four degrees from Harvard

and J.D.
For more than thirty years he has practiced law, with emphasis on constitutional
issues. In the Supreme Court of the United States he successfully argued or
briefed the cases leading to the landmark decisions
Abood v. Detroit Board of
Education, Chicago Teachers Union v. Hudson, and Communications Workers of
America v. Beck, which established constitutional and statutory limitations on
the uses to which labor unions, in both the private and the public sectors, may
apply fees extracted from nonunion workers as a condition of their employment.
He has written numerous monographs and articles in scholarly journals, and
lectured throughout the county. His most recent work on money and banking is the
two-volume Pieces of Eight: The Monetary Powers and Disabilities of the United
States Constitution (
2002), the most comprehensive study in existence of
American monetary law and history viewed from a constitutional perspective.

2000), a not-so-fictional story of an engineered
crash of the Federal Reserve System, and the political upheaval it causes.
