NOYB wrote: Homes may be 'taken' for private projects Justices: Local governments can give OK if it's for public good The Associated Press Updated: 12:23 p.m. ET June 23, 2005 WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that local governments may seize people's homes and businesses - even against their will - for private economic development. It was a decision fraught with huge implications for a country with many areas, particularly the rapidly growing urban and suburban areas, facing countervailing pressures of development and property ownership rights. As a result, cities now have wide power to bulldoze residences for projects such as shopping malls and hotel complexes in order to generate tax revenue. Yep, and it's horrendous. Justice John Paul Stevens wrote for the majority. He was joined by Justice Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen Breyer. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8331097 Except for Kennedy, it's the same 4 idiots who sided with Gore in 2000. "It Takes a Village" to steal your home. Yep. They decided to rewrite the Constitution. Too bad we can't vote they clowns out of office. |
