FIELD OF DEMOLISHED DREAMS

To see how evil the Democrats of connecticut are and see what a failure the government is.

This is susan Kelo's back yard. Or where it used to be. This once middle class neighborhood is now empty thanks to liberalism and the belief that the government is always right.

We need government out of the real estate business

Mt. Holly, New Jersey

A neighborhood of lower income and middle income homes, demolished for the construction of high income condos and town houses. Eminent domain was used to purchase 400 homes, by the government, and demolished by the government, cost, over 12 million dollars (and counting). The land was flipped to the developer for a fraction of the costs the local tax payers had to pay the difference.

All of this so the local government can rob the tax payers, who got the contracts for demo? The mayor’s brother, of course.

Hence, Connecticut is the cesspit of New England. Only Rhode Island which has the highest level of mentally ill and a super corrupt government and a poverty right just above Vermont and Maine comes close as does Massachusetts.

I notice you left out Maine.

While I agree with the Kelo decision that a local government stealing the land did not technically violate the Constitution, the theft was certainly immoral. I am glad that the development failed.

The Government always targets those who it think cannot fight back.

So does United Airlines. They don't send first class class luggage straight to their warehouse in Chicago, just economy class.
