This is a reverse Robin Hood. Robbing from the poor to give to the rich.
And I can bet my house that the money being given to the Connecticut residents isn't half what they need to buy a comparable house anywhere in the state of Connecticut.
Neil Cavuto mentioned some figures regarding the "just compensation" and it was staggering. And sad.
The majority's arrogance was palpable in its complete insensitivity to the plight of the working class citizens to be displaced by the impact of the ruling.
There was a post yesterday about that "just compensation" - $150,000 for a 10-room, waterfront home. That won't even buy you one of these cookie-cutter structures on a postage-stamp sized piece of drained swamp land that are popping up all over Florida these days.
And now for that homeowner, it's take it, or else. How long is it until the city governments start crying that even that piece of chump change is too much of a burden for them to bear?

Has anyone heard Bush railing about this supreme court decision? Vote third party before it is to late!
We know people who lost their home in Philadelphia in which they had lived all their married life and where their children were born, a gorgeous Victorian. What they received for it would not even come close for a comparable home.

Would you believe as low as 60K?!?!?!
