A Critical Blow to the Founder's Intentions
The Supreme Court really did it today. Forget that pesky Constitution, forget property rights. They don't exist any more.
Homeowner Loses Eminent Domain Case
So your land really isn't yours anymore. You can pay for it and live on it but only at the whim of Government. How the hell did this happen? Have we really come this far? Utterly disgusting and despicable. Thanks, SCOTUS. You just pissed off about 90% of the country.
I'm writing letters to my Senators and Representatives, locally and at the federal level. Legislation has to be implemented immediately to put a stop to this before the damage is done.
What kind of damage? I live in a part of Houston that is showing explosive growth, just near downtown. Old houses like mine are being squashed and townhouses are being built. Three townhouses on a lot vs. one house. Tax revenue.Guess what. I have a corner lot. I am now a target for this crap.
Even worse, my wife's family has a beach house on Jacksonville Beach. Theyve had it since before WWII. It is surrounded by condos but it is still there. How long do you think it will take before they are kicked off of their family property? I give it 2 months.
Im just furious right now. This fight will be won in the legislatures on the local, state and federal level. Start this fight immediately.
