Property rights eliminated

In the continuous arguments we hear from the left, the horrible corporations need to be held in check by the government. Yet once again, the evil lies not with the evil corporations, but with the government. The irony of a generation that railed against the evils of a government have created a government more intrusive and oppressive than the one they railed against. Regardless how you measure it, whether by taxes, use restrictions in private property, public and political speech restrictions; the increasingly liberal / socialist government has become a greater and greater threat to liberty. Now the "freedom" loving liberals get in bed with the "evil" corporations; just as long as they bring the tax money.

And it’s not just the Democrats. Republicans and Democrats alike, with rare exceptions, shift the tax burden to the rich, increase wealth re-distribution schemes, and make it harder for men to support their families. For years they have been inching toward the elimination of private property rights. Henry Lamb has been one of the most vocal opponents of Agenda 21; the UN property rights elimination program. Last week’s WND article being just the most recent in his long series. Yes all the nice politicians and government employees are busy implementing policies that have never been approved by any vote, and the few that have been voted on have been soundly defeated.

Now the Supremes have continued their part in the continuing saga. We all laughed when Bill Clinton famously stated: “it depends on what the definition of is is.” The Supremes have done this one better. After a heated debate, they have decided that public use means public benefit. So when they used to take your property to let people drive on it, now they take it because they think they have someone who can use your land better than you can; your property is at risk. In short. Private property is now conditional; and as such is not a right. Once again, those marvelous paragons against evil government have provided yet another reason to see that government is (absent one ruled by God Incarante), inherently evil; an institution that must be restrained and checked at every turn by a conscious, attentive, and suspicious populous.
