Well, they’re at it again. Keep em comin. Happily, the Congress stood tall, except Washington state, against the Supreme Court in the case of Kelo et al. v. City of New London.

Honestly I have no idea if this means much will change regarding private property but at least someone recognized the issue of private ownership as a large issue in the US.
