I am sure you all have heard of the eminent domain law.
In my area a major developer wanted to expand there shopping complex well the citizens didn't want to sell there homes so the city claimed eminent domain and forced them to sell because council took a vote and claimed the neighborhood was a blight on the city. The people filed a lawsuit and lost.
There neighborhood was no worse or better than other areas within the city.
Just goes to show that money talks and bullsh*t walks and the average AMERICAN people are loosing more of there rights everyday.
