The Myth of Democrat Support for "The Little Guy"

...is now dead:

Many Americans are perplexed that it was the liberals on the U.S. Supreme Court, and not the conservatives, who voted 5-4 to affirm Kelo v. City of New London. The decision allows local governments to seize homes and businesses and hand them over to private developers. It shouldn't surprise. Liberals, like their socialist friends, have never been too keen on private property rights. It has been Conservatives that have historically looked out for the rights of the property owner and the taxpayer.

Indeed the liberal majority on the U.S. Supreme Court is so determined to give government more authority over its citizenry and more power to tax that it is willing to sacrifice the rights of the small home and business owner.

The Democrats' addiction to taxpayer dollars has led directly to this travesty. Property rights, long the bulwark of liberty, are for all intents and purposes now dead in America.

So long as fatcat politicians can vote themselves your property deed, you now lack the only real right which matters---the right to live as you will on your land, insofar as you harm no one.
