In a blow to private property rights, the US Supreme Court has ruled that local municipalities can seize private property for the benefit of other private property interests. In other words, if Wal-Mart wants to build in your city, and your home is in the way, the expanded rules on eminent domain allow the city to take your house (for just compensation) and give it to Wal-Mart for development.

What is going on? Is this Nazi Germany? Are we being passively led to the poor/slaughter house?
Are we serfs yet?
Where are those who marched for rights? worrying about IRA's and moved to the capitalist side of the fence??
Shame..on those who assume civil rights don't have to be continually fought for...fall into passivity and there goes the freedom of expression..Was buring the flag heinous in the 70's? Was he really "tricky Dick" and what about Kennedy...seems like a fairytale.
Peace
