In 1916, Wilson nominated Louis Brandeis, a staunch progressive who had fought in court against the exploitation of women and children workers, to the Supreme Court. He was the first Jewish justice on the Court. Following Brandeis's nomination, Wilson supported improved credit for farmers and workers' compensation for federal employees. He then pushed through a law to eliminate child labor, but the Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional in 1918.

Without zero there would be: No algebra, no arithmetic, no decimal, no accounts, no physical quantity to measure, no boundary between negative and positive numbers, and no computers. The Mayan’s discovery of zero was one of the most significant steps to get to where we are today.
The counting system was so simple. The Mayans figured out a genius system of counting which only required three symbols, a dot, a line, and a shell. These three symbols could be used in various combinations to keep track of the calendar and do arithmetic. Even the most uneducated people could use it to do basic trade.
