So what, they still took it.
I got this in an email == and it’s close enough to the subject to post it.
The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing the greatest amount of free meals and food stamps ever, to 46 million people.
Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us “Please Do Not Feed the Animals.” Their stated reason for the policy is because the animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves.
This ends today’s lesson.
Launch and nuke it from orbit, or apply the Chauchesku solution.
The Soviet burro-craps didn't keep their jobs in the new Republics, unless they changed their tunes. And they had somewhat upset lots of people.
Question: Why does it matter what time the car arrives 10 years from now?
Answer: Because the plumber is coming in the morning.

Absolutely they are consistent in whatever is good for them.
How exactly is "state versus fed" in this case an example of Scotus siding with private property?

Please.

... isnt this the second or third case Kagan has not taken part in ?
It may not necessarily be because she recused herself. IINM, if a Justice is not present for the oral argument in a given case (for any reason), s/he may not take part (vote) in the decision on that case.
the State of California or rathers its army of petty tyrants, for decades now has fraudulently caused the zoning for land they covet to be changed to reduce its value before “purchasing” it (for the public good, of course””””
Such actions are called a ‘regulatory taking’, and Nevada County, California, tried such in the early 2000’s. They wanted to ‘inventory’ every square inch of everyone’s private property to look for ‘endangered species’ so they could tell you how YOU could use YOUR land and to what extent. They could have prevented me from using any of the pastures for my horses- both in part or in full.
I and others fought it all day until I made the statement ‘This is a regulatory taking’, we were getting no traction at the county supervisors meetings.
When I made that statement, all 5 of the supervisors turned pasty white. I explained in simple terms what ‘regulatory taking’ was to the audience on the open mic, which forced my comments to be part of the official record.
Then I told the angry supervisors that IF they were so darned bent on changing the traditional long term uses of my property—they could just write me a check for $350,000 within the next hour and I would be off the property—furniture-horses-trailers-vehicles-hay-bag and baggage within 10 days.
They were still pasty white, but they stayed silent.
I then told them that if they were not going to purchase my property for the above named price, they could stay the hell off my property for any and all reasons. Especially since they were planning ‘inventories’ of birds-bushes-bugs-everything on my 5 acres in a stealth manner—no notice. ANYONE could be on my prop0erty without my permission and I didn’t want that.
I knew that I had horses which would come running up to anyone looking for carrots and that such stampede would cause some elderly greenie to have a heart attack in my pasture. When I asked who would be responsible for such consequences, I was told I would have to pay for such a problem. That really got my dandruff up and the audience wasn’t happy, either.
They wanted to sneak onto my property without notice & then hold me responsible for any damage that happened to them. I wasn’t having it. They could own the property first, then they could inventory to their heart’s content.
We got ‘Nevada Heritage 2020’ rolled back, but it ended up in part of the Sierra Council 7 county regulations.
I could have happily shot all 5 of those supervisors, since they were also declaring THEIR property as EXEMPT from this inventory.
There have been many in which she was disqualified because she worked on the case as as a Government lawyer.
And yet, she didn't recuse herself for the landmark Obamacare case, when she directly worked on that case as Solicitor General.
I must be watching too much pr0n. </sarcasm>
I think I noted that in that decision, they still took the property.
Thanks for the ping, Tex. This is interesting...
