Gideon v. Wainwright do you agree that the poor should have the same access to legal counsel as anyone else? explain.
How did this landmark case affect the U.S. legal system today?

100% I agree that poor should have the same access to legal counsel as everyone else. Being poor shouldn't be a barrier to freedom if charged of a crime.

Gideon V. Wainwright is a landmark case because the ruling has allowed those who are poor that cant afford a proper laywer, to still get one provided by the state. It's allowed those that are poor and uneducated to defend themselves properly by someone who is eductated. Allowing them to be put through the court in an equal way to everyone else.
