On June 23 Supreme Court Rules Cities May Seize Homes and already Cleveland has begun the charge to claim private property for corporate use, in this case Progressive insurance (from a post on Scratchings):
Eminent domain: Progressive seeks man's land in Mayfield Village
Most telling is the city's condemnation of the private property as not being used effectively (the man uses it for storage, work and research, not for a residence--is Progressive planning on housing its executives in their headquarters?) and the city's rosy understanding of Progressive's benefit to the community structure (when we know the tax breaks that are cut for corporate move like this).
More and more Corporations Rule the World

And that was "moonbeam" liberal Jerry Brown that led the charge to take their businesses--looks like Oakland is going to be gentrified for the greater good of the public...
I was reflecting yesterday on how Sandra Day O'Connor was a conservative when she became a Justice and now people consider her a "moderate"? Its getting very difficult for me to keep score on who is what?
Definitely time for a new movement that rejects these idiotic dualistic designations and attempts to bring back some concern for basic right and respect for beings (living as opposed to corporate).
Thanks for the link...
