Now I Know My ABC's...

But first...I want to say how horrified I am over this. How is it ever ok to take someone's property just because big business comes in and can bring in more tax money? When we were down the shore the other day, we drove back up the coast and through Asbury Park, a shore town (made famous by Bruce Springsteen) that is in the midst of "urban renewal." They are building new townhouses starting around $700k in the middle of the hood. We saw this bar, called "Anybody's," which was right smack dab in the middle of two blocks of construction. They are refusing to leave. Good for them.

Yeah, Eminent Domain sucks. They tore down a very old barn near where I presently live that had one of those old "Chhew Mail Pouch Tobacco" handpainted signs from another era to build condos.

I am with you on Texas. I hate houston, but love San Antonio. Could be because I am from San Antonio. LOL

We have to deal with eminent domain here too. We are fighting the city now who is trying to take over 25 and 26 streets here at the beach to put an addition onto a school. You should see the banners on all the houses.

Wow. That supreme court thing is scary. Even scarier when I agree with Scalia and Thomas.

I agree--that eminent domain thing is wrong and scary and it just pisses me off to no end.
