I agree with you 100%. If I buy property it should be my decision of a sale or not. My problem is the bullshit of stating that the land is stolen from the owner in a fashion used by Stalin. Hopefully Congress ratifies the bill stating that this is illegal. But before that happens, I do hope that the house of the one Supreme Court Judges is taken in the fashion that he helped to create for the hotel.

"In Justice Souter's hometown of Weare, N.H., a letter has been received by the code enforcement officer, Chip Meany. The letter announces the intent of a developer from California to specifically request the governing board in Weare to approve eminent domain on Souter's home. The developer, in exchange, is promising to build a hotel, museum and gift shop on the property. At present, Souter pays only $2,895 annually in property tax. It wouldn't take a genius to note that a hotel and cafe on the premises immediately make it a more attractive tax revenue generator than Souter's old farmhouse. "
