Kelo: 10 Years Later

Views: 820
June 23 marks the 10th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s most universally despised opinion in modern memory: Kelo v. City of New London.

The decision stripped any protection against eminent domain abuse by the government out of the U.S. Constitution. If a developer merely promises to pay more taxes on your property, the High Court ruled that the government can take your home, your business or your land and hand it over to that private developer for his or her private use.

The only thing more outrageous than the decision is what happened to the land since then: nothing.
