"Law and order" amounted to appointing as Attorney General a Wall Street finance lawyer named John Mitchell to apply his dubious talents (mainly a "tough-mindedness" that would have made Mussolini proud) to making the streets safe to walk again. After continually rejecting wage and price controls or any restraints on the free market system, Nixon incorporated them nonetheless and later appointed Peter Brennan, head of a New York construction workers' union, Secretary of Labor. Brennan had nothing in common with Nixon's economic policies, having always been in the forefront of the push for yet more inflationary wage increases, but he had made Nixon an honorary hardhat, thus making him a blood-brother of other hardhats beating up on war protestors during the 1970 Cambodian invasion. After promising in 1968 to replace welfare with "workfare" but doing nothing substantial to alleviate the welfare problem, Nixon made "That's a guy from Will Rice. He decided to do Caspar Weinberger, another "tough minded" man (whose a little free-lance wildlife management when some feathered friends deposited about six ounces of experience was with the Office of Management and guano on his 50-page philosophy paper." —duncan Budget) Secretary of HEW, with the intent to slash its budget and eliminate such "wastes" as the Office of Economic Opportunity.
