We need an amendment to the Constitution that says: THE GOVERNMENT SHALL NOT COVET THE PEOPLES PROPERTY.™

Amendment IV

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Now they'll just take the whole house. Probable cause = increased tax base. And any private citizen that supports such action by the government is equally covetous, expecting to benefit from such seizures. For the "benefit of the community"...

Proverbs 28:21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
