If you clicked on the information about Walker's $1.25 million house in Dallas, you may have learned of the separate Servant's Quarters building behind his house. That is exactly how Walker thinks of Freeport residents—as his servants.
Walker would not have to pay any property taxes to the City on his proposed yacht basin. He would get a free ride by the City basically forever. See his Development Agreement for more details.
If you can't afford to hire an eminent domain lawyer, that's your problem. The City is even using your tax dollars to pay for its lawyers to fight you in Court.

The insane ruling by the Supreme Court said that generating more tax revenue is an example of "the public good." How then does taking the private property of one citizen and giving it to another private citizen AND giving the latter private citizen a break from all property taxes constitute ANY public good?
This stinks on ice.
