Property Rights are Human Rights!!! Property rights create a spiritual connection between human beings and the material world. Without them, it’s barbarism.

Levin was talking about it last night.

Oh, okay. I did catch that on his show. Thanks!

Wonder if there’s a connection with eminent domain the SCOTUS passed and Obama’s illegals allowed?.

Congress has the power but not the will. They allow government agencies to make laws in direct violation of the Constitution and don’t care.

Bought some "raw" land 13 years ago, 80 acres that was zoned farm grazing which determines it not build able until you can produce a certain level of income on the property. This is Oregon, worst zoning laws in the nation.

Decided it is time to get it legal for building, using certain loopholes in the zoning regulations. It is long, expensive and arduous, had to hire a former planning employee to help get it through the planning process and get a permit.

I wish I could list each and every expense, before breaking ground, to just get permission from "the man" to build a house on my paid for property. Have not broke ground other than piercing the surface with drill bit to get a hole for a well and we are $17,778 into the process. BTW we got 2.5 gpm at 288 feet deep!

Environmental management is a property right, now completely a socialized commons. The antithesis is here. For the record, I wrote the book.

You’re right; the problem in NJ is that government employment is so bloated everyone has family members on the dole (with workfare). We do have a tax freeze program for seniors, but the taxes are frozen at such a high level they still can’t stay in their homes.
