From 243 U.S. 426 - Bunting v. State · 1917Most cited · 86 citing opinions

We are not required to be sure of the precise reasons for [the legislature's] exercise [of power], or be convinced of the wisdom of its exercise. ... the constitutional validity of legislation cannot be determined by the degree of exactness of its provisions or remedies. New policies are usually tentative in their beginnings, advance in firmness as they advance in acceptance.
